FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the leather overlays and weaken the structural adhesives. Always clean by hand.
Are these suitable for long-distance running?
No, these are lifestyle trainers. The cushioning is designed for walking and everyday use, not the impact levels of long-distance running.
Do they fit true to size?
Yes, they feature a standard fit. Your typical UK shoe size should work for most users.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable if you prefer to use your own custom orthotics.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is a mix of breathable mesh and durable leather overlays.
Are they waterproof?
No, they are not waterproof. The mesh is breathable, which means water can easily pass through the fabric.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure you are double-knotting if the material feels slick, or consider replacing them with textured cotton laces.
Outsole collecting small stones in grooves
Use a dull plastic tool or a blunt butter knife to gently pry stones out of the retro-grooves to maintain traction.
Light scuffs on leather overlays
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft eraser to gently buff out minor surface scuffs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike V5 RNR trainers last as long as possible, follow these guidelines:
- Fit: The shoes follow a standard fit. If you prefer to wear thicker socks, consider this when checking your standard UK size.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove loose dirt from the mesh. For the leather overlays, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid soaking the shoe, as excessive water can damage the adhesives.
- Drying: Always air dry the trainers at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause the leather to crack and the glue to warp.
- Maintenance: Regularly retie the laces to maintain the proper lockdown, and consider using a water-repellent spray on the mesh to protect against light stains.
