Full details

These shoes provide exceptional comfort through signature Max Air cushioning and a supportive foam midsole, making them an excellent choice for daily wear and lifestyle use. While they offer premium durability thanks to their full-grain leather construction, users should note that the structured leather upper may require a short breaking-in period compared to lighter knit footwear.

FAQs
Are Nike Air Max 90s true to size?
Yes, most users find that the Air Max 90 fits true to size, though the leather upper may feel snug initially before it molds to your foot.
Can I use these for running?
While originally designed for running, modern athletic technology has surpassed the 90s era. They are best suited for walking, lifestyle, and casual use.
How do I remove scuffs from the leather?
For light scuffs on the leather, a specialized leather cleaner or a damp cloth with mild soapy water is usually sufficient.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
The leather upper provides better water protection than fabric shoes, but they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged.
What is the primary difference between the Air Max 90 and other series?
The Air Max 90 is recognized for its chunkier midsole, larger Max Air unit in the heel, and distinct '90s-era silhouette compared to more modern, streamlined designs.
Troubleshooting
Creasing at the toe box
This is common with leather footwear. Use shoe trees when not wearing to minimize deep creases and maintain the silhouette.
Squeaking sounds during walking
This often occurs due to friction between the insole and the shoe interior. Try removing and reseating the insole or applying a small amount of talcum powder beneath it.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Nike Air Max 90s in top condition, proper care is essential:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove loose dirt from the outsole. For the leather upper, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid soaking the leather.
- Drying: Air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp or crack the leather.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Using a shoe tree can help maintain the original shape and prevent creasing in the toe box.
- Protection: Consider applying a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray to maintain the finish.
