FAQs
What makes the Air Max 90 iconic?
The Nike Air Max 90 is iconic due to its bold design introduced in the 1990s, featuring visible Air cushioning, a distinctive "spoiler" heel, and a mix of materials that were innovative for its time. It became a symbol of street style and sneaker culture.
Are these trainers good for running?
While they offer comfort and cushioning, the Nike Air Max 90 are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers, not for high-impact running. For dedicated running, Nike offers specialized running shoe models.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
You can use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution to gently clean the mesh. For tougher stains, a soft-bristled brush can be used carefully. Always allow to air dry.
Can I wear these in the rain?
The trainers offer some protection, but the suede and mesh materials are not fully waterproof. Extended exposure to heavy rain is not recommended, and the suede may be affected.
What does 'Photon Dust / Blue' refer to in the colorway?
'Photon Dust' is a light, neutral grey shade, and 'Blue' refers to the accent color used on various parts of the trainer, such as the Swoosh, sole accents, or branding.
What is the Waffle outsole for?
The Waffle outsole, a Nike innovation, provides durable traction and a unique aesthetic. Its pattern helps distribute pressure and offers grip on various surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Discoloration of suede material
Gently brush with a suede eraser or cleaner specifically designed for suede. Avoid using water on suede areas.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
While the Air unit is durable, consistent heavy use can lead to a perceived reduction in cushioning. Consider rotating with other footwear for longevity.
Traction issues on wet surfaces
The Waffle outsole provides good grip, but caution is advised on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean for optimal performance.
