FAQs
Is the Nike Kaishi suitable for running?
The Kaishi is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer. While comfortable for walking and light activity, it does not provide the technical support required for long-distance running.
How do I choose the right size?
Nike generally runs true to size. If you prefer a roomier fit for thicker socks, consider opting for a half-size larger than your standard measurement.
Can these shoes be machine washed?
It is recommended to avoid machine washing as it can damage the materials and structural adhesives. Hand cleaning is the safest method.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The Kaishi typically features a combination of lightweight mesh and synthetic overlays to balance breathability and durability.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
No, the materials used are breathable and not intended for use in wet or rainy conditions.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt or scuffs on the black upper
Use a specialized black suede or fabric brush to gently lift dirt, or wipe lightly with a damp microfiber cloth.
Footbed feels less supportive over time
Consider replacing the factory insoles with high-quality aftermarket insoles for renewed arch support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As a standard trainer, the Nike Kaishi requires no special setup. To ensure the longest lifespan for your trainers:
- Cleaning: Wipe away surface dirt with a soft, dry brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid soaking the materials.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can degrade the adhesives and warp the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the black fabric from fading.
- Compatibility: These shoes pair naturally with jeans, chinos, or athletic joggers, making them a highly compatible addition to any wardrobe.
