FAQs

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

The design of the Nike Air Max 97 is famously inspired by Japanese bullet trains, reflected in its fluid, wavy lines.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The Nike Air Max 97 SE is primarily a lifestyle sneaker designed for comfort and style in everyday wear. While it features excellent cushioning, it is not engineered as a performance running shoe.

How should I clean the suede parts of the 'Olive Bone' colorway?

For suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dirt and a suede eraser for scuffs. Avoid using water, and if necessary, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for the material.

Does the 'Olive Bone' colorway come in other sizes?

Yes, the Nike Air Max 97 SE is available in various sizes. Please check the product listing for available UK sizes.

What is the benefit of the full-length visible Air unit?

The full-length visible Air unit provides consistent cushioning across the entire sole of the shoe, offering responsive comfort and impact absorption throughout the day.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, excessive moisture can damage the suede and glue. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions, or to ensure they are properly treated with waterproofing products.

What material is the Nike Air Max 97 SE 'Olive Bone' made of?

This specific model features a blend of premium leather and suede accents.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or narrow

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the shoes are new, wear them for short periods to allow them to break in. Consider using thicker socks for initial wear to gently stretch the material.

Visible Air unit appears deflated

The visible Air unit is designed for cushioning, not for maintaining a rigid shape. While it may compress slightly with use, significant deflation typically indicates wear and tear. For any concerns about the integrity of the Air unit, consult Nike's warranty information.

Leather or suede shows scuffs or stains

Address stains immediately. Use appropriate cleaning products for leather and suede as outlined in the care instructions. For stubborn marks, professional shoe cleaning services may be an option.

Laces are difficult to adjust

The hidden lacing system might require a firm pull to tighten. Ensure the laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets and that there are no knots or snags preventing smooth adjustment.

Care: To maintain the premium appearance of the leather and suede, it is recommended to:

  • Brush off loose dirt with a soft brush.

  • Suede areas can be cleaned with a specialized suede cleaner or eraser. Avoid excessive water on suede.
  • Allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
  • Consider using a protective spray suitable for leather and suede to guard against moisture and stains.
