FAQs

How do I measure my child's foot for the best fit?

Place your child's foot on a piece of paper, ensuring their heel is against a wall. Mark the end of their longest toe. Measure the distance from the wall to the mark in centimeters (cm). Compare this measurement to the foot length chart provided to find the closest size. If the measurement falls between two sizes, it's generally recommended to choose the larger size, allowing for growth and comfort. A small allowance (e.g., 0.5 cm) is normal.

Are these shoes suitable for all types of sports?

The Nike Air More Uptempo 96 PS is primarily designed for casual wear, school, and light athletic activities. While they offer good cushioning and support, they are not specialized for high-impact sports like basketball or running, which may require footwear with more advanced performance features and specific support structures.

What does 'PS' stand for in the product name?

'PS' typically stands for 'Preschool' in Nike's sizing nomenclature, indicating that this shoe is designed for younger children in that age group.

How should I clean the 'AIR' lettering?

The 'AIR' lettering is usually made of leather or synthetic material. Clean it gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or excessive water, as this could damage the material or the adhesive holding it to the shoe.

What is the main color of these sneakers?

The main color of these sneakers is grey, with 'Industrial Blue' as a secondary color accentuating the 'AIR' branding and other design elements.

Can these shoes be worn with thick socks?

Yes, they can be worn with various sock thicknesses. However, if your child typically wears thick socks, consider trying on the shoes with them to ensure a comfortable fit, as thicker socks may make the shoe feel snugger.

Are these shoes waterproof?

These sneakers are not designed to be waterproof. They are made from materials that can handle light moisture but will not protect feet in wet conditions. Avoid prolonged exposure to rain or puddles.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or too loose

Adjust the lacing to your child's comfort. Ensure the correct size is being used by referring to the foot measurement guide. Inner socks can also affect fit; try with different sock thicknesses.

Difficulty putting the shoe on

Loosen the laces significantly. Ensure the tongue is pulled forward and the heel collar is open. For younger children, elastic laces or a shoe horn might assist.

Dirt or scuffs on the material

Use a damp cloth and mild soap for light cleaning. For tougher stains on leather, a specialized leather cleaner can be used carefully. For scuffs on the midsole, a magic eraser can be effective.

Sole or cushioning feels flat

Over time, cushioning can compress with extensive use. Ensure the correct size is being used, as an ill-fitting shoe can sometimes feel less supportive. For significant degradation, replacement may be necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These sneakers require no assembly. They are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure the laces are tied securely but not too tightly to allow for comfort and natural foot movement.

Compatibility: The Nike Air More Uptempo 96 PS is designed as a general-purpose athletic shoe for children, suitable for casual wear, school, and light athletic activities. It is compatible with a wide range of children's casual outfits.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Uppers: Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to gently remove dirt and dust from the leather and synthetic materials. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: For the rubber parts, a damp cloth with mild soap can be effective. For stubborn marks, a non-abrasive cleaner might be used sparingly.
  3. Laces: Remove laces and wash them separately by hand or in a laundry bag. Allow them to dry completely before re-lacing.
  4. Drying: Always air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
  5. Avoid Machine Washing: Do not put these sneakers in a washing machine or dryer, as this can damage the materials, cushioning, and adhesives.
