FAQs
What makes the Nike Air Max Terrascape Plus sustainable?
The shoe incorporates significant recycled materials, including recycled polyester for the upper, Nike Grind (from factory waste and old shoes) in the upper construction, 100% recycled polyester laces, and 13.5% recycled rubber in the outsole. Overall, it's made of 20% recycled materials by weight.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Nike Air Max Terrascape Plus is primarily designed for comfort and style during everyday activities and casual wear. While they offer good cushioning, they are not engineered as specialized running shoes.
How do I clean the speckled midsole?
Use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap and water solution to gently clean the speckled midsole. Wipe away any residue with a clean, damp cloth.
What is Nike Grind?
Nike Grind is a material created by Nike from factory waste and recycled shoes. It is used in various Nike products, including the upper of the Air Max Terrascape Plus.
What is the difference between this and the original Air Max Plus?
The Air Max Terrascape Plus is an updated silhouette of the original Air Max Plus. It features a greater emphasis on sustainable materials and a slightly modified design aesthetic, including a TPU cage and speckled midsole.
What is the heel reinforcement labeled 'TS'?
The 'TS' marking on the hardened rubber heel reinforcement signifies that this part of the shoe is designed for enhanced durability and support.
Can these shoes be worn in wet conditions?
While the rubber sole offers some protection, the recycled polyester upper is not waterproof. These shoes are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Extensive exposure to heavy rain is not recommended.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels incorrect.
Nike sizing can vary. If the fit is not right, consider trying a half-size up or down. Refer to Nike's official size guide for accurate measurements.
Discomfort after prolonged wear.
Ensure the laces are properly adjusted for a secure yet comfortable fit. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for shorter periods initially.
