FAQs

What is the primary inspiration for the Air Max 97 design?

The design is inspired by Japanese bullet trains, reflecting its fluid lines and speed-oriented aesthetic.

Are these trainers suitable for running or intense sports?

While they offer excellent cushioning for comfort, they are primarily designed for casual wear and not specialized for high-impact athletic performance.

How do I clean the reflective piping?

Gently wipe the reflective piping with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid scrubbing or using abrasive cleaners, as this can damage the reflective material.

What makes the 'OG' version special?

The 'OG' (Original) version typically refers to a release that closely matches the original design and materials from its first launch, often appealing to collectors and those who appreciate retro authenticity.

Can I wear these trainers in the rain?

The trainers offer some protection, but are not fully waterproof. They can handle light rain, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended. Ensure they are properly dried afterwards.

What is the sizing like for the women's Air Max 97?

The sizing is generally consistent with Nike's standard women's sizing. It's recommended to refer to Nike's official size chart or try them on if possible, as individual fit can vary.

What other colors are available for the Air Max 97 series?

The Air Max 97 series has been released in a wide variety of colorways over the years, including silver, black, white, and various multi-color options, in addition to this 'Atlantic Blue'.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or narrow.

The 'OG' fit prioritizes the original design. Try wearing them with thinner socks initially. If the issue persists, consider if a half-size up might be more comfortable, depending on availability.

Laces come undone frequently.

Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot. You can also consider replacing them with elastic no-tie laces for convenience.

Traction feels slippery on wet surfaces.

While the rubber outsole offers good grip, caution is advised on very wet or slick surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean from debris.

Reflective elements appear faded.

The reflective piping is designed to catch light. Ensure the area is dark enough for the effect to be noticeable. Prolonged exposure to harsh elements can reduce reflectivity over time.
