- Is the Air Force 1 Low Gore-Tex actually waterproof?
- Yes. A Gore-Tex membrane sits behind the upper panels and the tongue is gusseted, so the shoe is built to keep water out. The leather and textile outer still needs occasional cleaning to keep beading water.
- How does it compare with the standard Air Force 1 Low?
- Same last, Air heel unit and pivot-circle outsole, but the Gore-Tex build adds a waterproof membrane and gusseted tongue. It is heavier, warmer and less breathable than the plain leather version.
- Does it run true to size?
- It uses the standard Air Force 1 sizing, which runs roomy and wide. The padded Gore-Tex lining makes it feel snugger, so try your usual AF1 size first.
- Is it good for summer?
- No. The waterproof membrane traps heat and moisture, so it is best for rain, slush and cold weather. Expect sweaty feet in warm, dry conditions.
- What is the Air unit in the heel?
- An encapsulated Nike Air cushioning unit in the heel, the same setup as the original Air Force 1. It gives soft landings without visible air windows.
- Can I wear it for basketball?
- It is a lifestyle shoe now. The Air heel and rubber outsole handle casual court use, but the waterproof upper is heavier and less breathable than a modern performance basketball shoe.
