FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

We recommend spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap. Machine washing can compromise the leather overlays and foam structure.

Does this shoe come with laces?

No, the Flex Runner 3 is a dedicated slip-on shoe featuring a stretchy bootie design for convenience.

Can these be used for school sports?

Yes, their flexible design and grippy traction make them suitable for general school activities and gym class.

Is the material waterproof?

No, the shoes are constructed with breathable mesh to maximize airflow, so they are not designed to be waterproof.

What is the best way to determine the right size?

Measure your child's foot at the end of the day when feet are at their largest and consult the standard Nike size guide for the UK 8 range.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty pulling the shoe on

Ensure both the tongue and heel pull tabs are being utilized simultaneously to open the bootie fully.

Shoe feels loose during play

Check that the socks being worn are not too thin; a slightly thicker sock can help fill the volume for a more secure fit.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Slip-on design promotes independence
  • Lightweight construction prevents foot fatigue
  • Flexible sole supports natural foot movement
  • Durable materials withstand daily active play
  • Breathable mesh keeps feet fresh

Cons

  • No adjustable laces may be difficult for narrow feet
  • Available in specific size ranges that may skip half-sizes
  • Material cleaning requires care to preserve leather overlays

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longest lifespan for your Flex Runner 3 trainers, keep the following in mind:

  1. Fitting: Ensure the child is wearing socks of the thickness they intend to use during play when trying on the shoes. The bootie fit should feel snug but not restrictive.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush or a damp cloth with mild soap to spot-clean the mesh areas. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a dryer, as high heat can damage the adhesives and leather.
  3. Maintenance: Periodically check the outsole for embedded debris (like small stones or gravel) that can affect traction and remove them gently with a blunt tool.
