FAQs

Is the Nike Air Max Plus OG 'Scarab' true to size?

Yes, most users find that the shoe fits true to their standard Nike sizing. If you have wider feet, you may prefer a half-size larger.

Can these be used for heavy running?

While they feature cushioning suitable for light activities, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers rather than performance running shoes.

How do I protect the metallic finish?

Avoid using heavy chemicals. Use a high-quality, water-based leather protector that is explicitly safe for metallic-finished leathers.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from premium leather, specifically treated with a metallic copper finish.

Are these sneakers suitable for wet weather?

While the rubber sole provides good traction, the leather upper is not waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain to maintain the integrity of the finish.

Troubleshooting

Visible surface dust on the metallic finish

Gently wipe the exterior with a dry, soft microfiber cloth to prevent abrasion.

Insole becomes uncomfortable after long wear

Consider replacing the factory insole with a third-party ergonomic insert for customized arch support.

Creasing in the leather toe area

Use a cedar shoe tree after every wear to help the leather retain its natural shape.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these sneakers feature specialized metallic leather, it is important to avoid harsh detergents or abrasive scrubbing brushes during cleaning. To maintain the copper and gold finish, wipe the exterior gently with a soft, damp microfiber cloth after use to remove surface dirt and dust. If deeper cleaning is required, use a premium leather cleaner specifically formulated for metallic or delicate finishes. Always air dry away from direct heat sources, as excessive warmth can crack the leather or degrade the adhesive holding the rubber outsole to the upper. For storage, use shoe trees to maintain the shape of the toebox and store in a cool, dry place to prevent the metallic finish from oxidizing or fading.
