FAQs
What makes the Sacai Nike LD Waffle unique?
Its uniqueness stems from its hybrid design, merging two iconic Nike running silhouettes (LDV and Waffle Racer) and featuring distinctive layered details like the double Swoosh and doubled-up sole elements.

This specific model, the 'Black' variant, features a black upper with anthracite accents, white and gun smoke Swooshes, a white midsole, and a black outsole.
Are these suitable for running?
While inspired by running shoes, the Sacai Nike LD Waffle is primarily a lifestyle sneaker designed for fashion and casual wear, not high-performance running.
How should I clean the layered parts of the shoe?
Use a soft brush with a mild cleaning solution and gently work on the layered areas. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.

The original retail price for these sneakers was $160 USD.

What other colorways or collaborations are similar?
Nike and Sacai also collaborated on other colorways of the LD Waffle and a Nike Blazer model. The LD Waffle itself has seen various color iterations.
Troubleshooting
Uneven lacing tension
Adjust the laces by loosening them at the eyelets and re-tightening evenly from the bottom up. Ensure the doubled-up eyelets are managed consistently.
Slight creasing on the upper
Minor creasing is normal with wear. To minimize, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use. Avoid over-tightening laces.
Dirt accumulation on the layered elements
Use a soft-bristled brush (like a toothbrush) with a mild cleaning solution to gently scrub the layered details. Wipe clean with a damp cloth.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For the midsole and outsole, a mild soap and water solution can be used with a soft brush.
- Drying: Allow the sneakers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources or in a dryer, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or dust bag to protect them from dust and direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to maintain their shape.
