Product Information
Full details
The Nike Air Force 1 Fontanka is designed for adults seeking a blend of classic basketball heritage and modern, experimental street style. It offers a significant boost in comfort through its lifted midsole and plush foam cushioning, making it an excellent choice for everyday wear. However, potential buyers should note that the layered, deconstructed aesthetic is a bold departure from the traditional smooth-panel Air Force 1 design, which may require careful styling to match specific outfits.

FAQs
Is the Nike Air Force 1 Fontanka true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to standard Nike sizing, though the internal plush foam provides a slightly more secure, snug feel than the standard Air Force 1.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, these are lifestyle sneakers. They are designed for casual, everyday wear and do not have the technical support required for running or high-intensity sports.
How do I maintain the grey leather?
Wipe with a clean, damp cloth and use a suede/leather protector spray suitable for grey leather to maintain the colour and prevent water stains.
Can I remove the insoles?
The insoles are typically factory-bonded. It is recommended to leave them in place to ensure you do not damage the internal cushioning layers.
What does the 'Fontanka' series represent?
The Fontanka series is a creative sub-line from Nike that draws inspiration from the underground rave scene, focusing on deconstructed layers and bold, experimental design elements.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather toe box
This is common with leather trainers. Using a shoe tree when not in use helps maintain shape and minimize the depth of creases.
Difficulty cleaning between the layered panels
Use a soft toothbrush or a compressed air canister to gently dislodge debris from the tight gaps between the layered design elements.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Force 1 Fontanka stays in peak condition, follow these guidelines:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust from the leather and layers. Use a damp cloth with mild soap for deeper stains; do not submerge the shoes in water.
- Leather Care: Apply a leather-safe conditioner periodically to prevent cracking and maintain the material's suppleness.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the leather to fade or discolour.
- Compatibility: These shoes are designed for standard adult foot sizing. If you prefer to wear thicker socks during colder months, you may find the interior fit to be snug, as the plush foam padding takes up some space within the shoe.
