FAQs

What makes this shoe a collaboration?

This shoe is a collaboration between three distinct entities: sacai, Undercover, and Nike. Each brings its design philosophy, resulting in a unique hybrid model.

What does 'double-layered aesthetic' refer to?

It refers to sacai's signature design element where certain components, like the tongues and some overlays, are presented in two layers, adding visual depth and a deconstructed look.

Is this shoe suitable for athletic performance?

While Nike is a sports brand, this specific collaboration is primarily designed as a lifestyle and fashion item. It offers comfort for casual wear but is not intended for high-impact athletic activities.

What are the primary materials used?

The shoe features a nylon upper with leather and hairy suede overlays. The midsole and outsole also incorporate layered elements.

When was this shoe released?

The sacai x Undercover x Nike LDWaffle was released in October 2021.

How should I clean the suede parts?

Use a dry suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner sparingly and test on an inconspicuous area first.

Can I wear these shoes every day?

While durable for casual wear, their status as a collectible and unique design means many owners prefer to limit daily wear to preserve their condition and value.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears matted or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult specialized suede cleaning products, testing on a small area first.

Nylon upper shows creases

Wear the shoes regularly to allow them to mold to your feet. Storing them with shoe trees can help maintain their shape and minimize creasing over time.

Laces feel stiff or dirty

Remove the laces and hand wash them with mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing the shoes.

Sole appears worn

For minor scuffs, a rubber eraser or specialized sole cleaner can be used. Significant wear may require professional sole repair services if preserving the shoe is a priority.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear upon purchase. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort.

Compatibility: The sacai x Undercover x Nike LDWaffle is designed as a unisex lifestyle sneaker, though listed in men's sizing. It pairs well with a wide range of casual and fashion-forward apparel.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: For nylon and leather components, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For suede areas, a suede brush can be used to restore the nap and remove light dust. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.
  2. Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation and color fading. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
  3. Protection: Consider using a fabric protector spray suitable for mixed materials to help repel water and stains, especially on the nylon and suede sections. However, test any product on an inconspicuous area first.
