FAQs

Are the Nike Air Max 97 SE suitable for running?

The Air Max 97 SE is designed primarily for casual wear and lifestyle. While it features Air Max cushioning, it is not engineered for the specific demands of running or high-impact sports.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For tougher stains, a dedicated leather cleaner and a soft brush can be used gently. Always allow the shoes to air dry.

What is the inspiration behind the design?

The design of the Air Max 97 is inspired by Japan's Shinkansen (bullet train) and the ripple effect of water. The wavy lines and reflective accents contribute to its futuristic and dynamic aesthetic.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, the shoes are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may damage the materials. It's best to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions.

What does 'SE' stand for in Nike Air Max 97 SE?

'SE' typically stands for 'Special Edition,' indicating variations in materials, colorways, or design details compared to the original model.

How does the Air Max cushioning work?

The full-length visible Air unit is a pressurized air pocket embedded in the midsole. It provides lightweight, durable cushioning and shock absorption with every step.

Troubleshooting

Laces come undone frequently

Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot if necessary. Consider replacing laces with a textured pair for better grip.

Discomfort after prolonged wear

Verify that the shoe size is correct and offers adequate width. Break in the shoes gradually. Ensure socks are moisture-wicking and provide adequate cushioning.

Leather scuffs or marks appear

Use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft cloth to gently remove marks. For deeper scuffs, consider a leather recoloring balm matching the shoe's color.
