FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, machine washing can damage the Air unit and structural integrity. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is recommended.

What does the Air unit do?

The Air unit provides pressurized air within a flexible bag to offer lightweight, springy cushioning for impact protection.

Are these true to size?

Generally, the Nike Air Max 97 fits true to size. If you are wearing thick socks, you may want to ensure you have enough room in the toe box.

Can these be used for sports?

They are excellent for general physical activity, though they are categorized as lifestyle trainers rather than specialized performance running shoes.

How do I remove scuffs from the synthetic leather?

Gently rub the scuff with a soft cloth and a mild soap-and-water mixture; avoid abrasive sponges.

Troubleshooting

Air unit looks cloudy or scratched

Surface scratches are normal with regular wear; avoid harsh chemicals when cleaning the transparent unit to prevent clouding.

Laces constantly coming untied

Ensure the laces are threaded properly through the crisscross loops and consider a double knot if the wearer is particularly active.

Accumulated dirt in the wave layers

Use a soft-bristled toothbrush to gently brush away dirt from the grooves between the synthetic leather waves.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-performance impact cushioning for comfort
  • Iconic, recognizable design aesthetic
  • Durable construction suitable for active use
  • Secure fit with adjustable lacing

Cons

  • Synthetic leather overlays can crease with heavy use
  • Lighter colors may show dirt more easily
  • Low-profile design offers less ankle support than high-tops

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Air Max 97s remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fit Check: Ensure the laces are tightened just enough to hold the foot securely without cutting off circulation.
  2. Cleaning: Wipe the textile upper with a soft, damp cloth. Use a mild soap solution for the synthetic leather sections. Avoid machine washing, as the heat and agitation can damage the Air unit and adhesive bonds.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading of the Kinetic Green and Pink Blast accents.
  4. Maintenance: Regularly remove debris from the outsole grooves to maintain maximum grip.
