2.1 Lacing

1. Loosen the laces sufficiently to allow your foot to slide in comfortably.

3.2 Air Cushioning

The integrated Air cushioning in the heel provides responsive comfort. This technology is designed to absorb impact and provide a cushioned feel with each step.

3.3 Heel Pulls

Utilize the dual heel pulls located at the back of the shoe to assist in putting on and taking off the footwear, helping to preserve the shoe's structure.

4. Care and Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Nike x AMBUSH Air Adjust Force SP shoes.

4.1 Cleaning the Nubuck Upper

• Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft-bristled brush.
• For stubborn marks, use a specialized nubuck cleaner and follow the product instructions.
• Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water, as these can damage the nubuck material.
• Allow shoes to air dry naturally, away from direct heat or sunlight.

4.2 Cleaning the Rubber Outsole

• Wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap.
• Use a brush to remove dirt from grooves for optimal traction.

4.3 Storage

Store shoes in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to prevent material degradation.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your shoes, consider the following common solutions.

5.1 Discomfort or Tightness

• Lacing: Ensure laces are not tied too tightly, especially across the top of the foot. Adjust for a comfortable, secure fit.
• Saddle Adjustment: If the detachable saddle feels too restrictive, try loosening its attachment or removing it temporarily to assess comfort.
• Break-in Period: New shoes may require a short break-in period to conform to your foot shape.

5.2 Reduced Traction

• Clean Outsole: Dirt and debris can accumulate in the outsole grooves, reducing traction. Clean the rubber outsole thoroughly as described in the Maintenance section.
