Product Information
Full details
The Nike Moon Shoe is a heritage-inspired trainer designed for sneaker enthusiasts and those who appreciate 1970s running aesthetics. This modern re-release captures the spirit of Bill Bowerman’s original waffle-iron-inspired design, offering a unique blend of nylon and leather materials for a textured, vintage look. While the shoe provides excellent historical significance and classic style, its flat-soled construction is best suited for casual wear rather than high-impact modern athletic performance.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
No, these are heritage lifestyle trainers intended for casual wear, not modern athletic performance.
What materials are used in the upper?
The upper is constructed using a combination of durable nylon and premium leather.
Do these shoes run true to size?
The Moon Shoe generally follows standard UK sizing, though the low-profile fit may feel snug for those with wider feet.
How do I maintain the leather parts?
Use a leather conditioner occasionally to prevent cracking and keep the material supple.
Is the outsole slip-resistant?
The rubber waffle sole offers standard grip on most dry surfaces, but exercise caution on wet or oily floors.
Can I replace the insole?
The insole may be removed; however, replacements should be low-profile to ensure the shoe remains comfortable.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the leather upper
Use wooden shoe trees when not wearing the shoes to help retain their natural shape.
Difficulty cleaning the waffle sole
Use a soft-bristled toothbrush to scrub between the lugs of the waffle pattern with mild soapy water.
Laces becoming undone frequently
Ensure the laces are tied with a secure double knot, or replace them with higher-friction cotton laces if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers feature a combination of nylon and leather, avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water to prevent material damage. To clean the surface, use a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for localized spots. Allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat sources to maintain the shape of the leather panels. Ensure your fit is accurate by measuring your foot against standard UK sizing, as the slim profile may feel different than modern bulkier running shoes.
