Product Information
Full details
The Nike Free Ride Trainers are designed for active kids seeking a lightweight, flexible shoe for running and everyday play. Their key benefit is the natural foot movement supported by the Nike Free sole, offering a bouncy and breathable experience with an easy slip-on fit. A potential consideration is that the low-cut collar might require adjustment for children preferring higher ankle support. These trainers feature a bootie-like construction for comfort, pull tabs for easy on-off, and a combination of textile and synthetic leather materials.

FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The bootie-like fit offers a snug feel. While the laces allow for some adjustment, they might not be ideal for exceptionally wide feet. It's recommended to try them on if possible.
How do I clean the synthetic leather parts?
Use a soft, damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap. Gently wipe the synthetic leather areas, then wipe clean with a separate damp cloth. Allow to air dry.
What is the main benefit of the Nike Free sole?
The Nike Free sole is designed to be highly flexible, promoting natural foot movement and mimicking the feeling of running barefoot. It provides a responsive and bouncy sensation.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the adhesives, materials, and overall structure of the shoe. Spot cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.
What age group are these trainers intended for?
These trainers are designed for 'Big Kids', indicating they are suitable for older children who are active and require footwear for running and play.
How do the pull tabs work?
The pull tabs are loops located on the tongue and heel of the shoe. They provide a sturdy point to grip, making it easier for children to pull the shoes onto their feet.
What is the material composition?
The material consists of 66% Textile (100% Polyester) and 34% Synthetic Leather-synthetic Plastic.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty getting the shoe on
Ensure the laces are loosened considerably. Utilize the pull tabs on the tongue and heel for better leverage. Children may need practice to master the slip-on technique.
Foot feels unsupported during intense activity
The Nike Free sole is designed for natural movement. If more rigid support is needed, consider a different shoe model. Ensure the laces are adequately tightened for a snug fit.
Material appears worn after regular use
This is normal for active footwear. For longevity, follow the care instructions to clean and dry the shoes properly. Rotate with other footwear if possible.
