FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The Nike Cortez trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer comfort for walking, they are not intended for rigorous athletic activities like running.

How do I clean the suede material?

Use a suede brush for general dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner, following the product instructions and testing on a small area first. Avoid water and machine washing.

Can I wear these trainers in the rain?

It is not recommended to wear suede trainers in wet conditions, as they can be easily stained and damaged by water. Using a suede protector spray can offer some protection.

What is the main difference between this and other Nike trainers?

The Nike Cortez is an iconic model known for its specific design lineage, often featuring a lower profile and a focus on heritage style and everyday comfort, unlike performance-oriented running shoes.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the Nike official size guide for accurate measurements. This model is available in adult women's UK sizing.

What is the material of the sole?

The sole is made of durable rubber, designed to provide reliable traction and longevity for everyday wear.

Is this model suitable for men?

This specific variant is listed as a women's trainer. While style preferences vary, Nike offers many Cortez models in unisex and men's sizing.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions.

Trainer feels too tight

Suede can stretch slightly with wear. Wear them with medium-weight socks for a short period to help them mould to your feet. If they remain uncomfortably tight, consider if a larger size might be more appropriate.

Water stains on suede

Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to try and restore the texture. A suede eraser can also help with minor water spots. Prevention with protector spray is recommended.

Colour transfer to socks or trousers

This can sometimes occur with new suede items, especially in darker colours. Ensure the suede is properly treated or sealed. Washing coloured socks separately for the first few washes can help mitigate transfer.
