FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While originally designed for performance, the Air Max 90 is now primarily categorized as a lifestyle trainer and is best suited for walking and casual activities.
How do I determine if these are the right size?
We recommend measuring your feet while wearing the socks you plan to use with the shoes to ensure a proper fit.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash your trainers, as this can damage the adhesives and the Air cushioning unit; hand cleaning is preferred.
What does the Air unit do?
The Air unit contains pressurized gas that compresses upon impact to absorb shock, providing a springy and cushioned feel underfoot.
Do they provide good arch support?
Yes, the construction of the midsole offers moderate arch support suitable for most casual users.
Troubleshooting
Creasing at the toe box
This is a natural occurrence in leather and synthetic trainers; use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain the structure.
Surface stains on the upper
Apply a mild soap solution with a soft cloth, dabbing gently rather than scrubbing to avoid damaging the fabric texture.
Squeaking during walking
Check the outsole for small debris trapped in the tread or ensure the inner sole is seated correctly inside the shoe.
