FAQs

Is the Nike Free RN 2018 suitable for marathon running?

It is better suited for short to mid-distance running. If you are training for a full marathon, you may prefer a shoe with more substantial cushioning for prolonged impact.

Are these shoes true to size?

Most users find the Nike Free RN 2018 fits true to size, but the flexible upper provides a snug, sock-like feel.

Can I remove the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing for the use of custom orthotics if required.

Are these good for walking?

Yes, their lightweight and flexible design makes them excellent for all-day walking and casual wear.

How should I store them?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the cushioning foam.

Troubleshooting

Feeling of slipping in the heel

Use the extra eyelet at the top for a runner's loop (heel lock) lacing technique.

Upper material showing signs of dirt

Gently wipe with a damp cloth or soft-bristled brush using a mild detergent and water.

Midfoot feels too loose

Adjust the lace tension specifically at the midfoot eyelets to engage the Flywire cables.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight construction reduces fatigue during long sessions
  • Highly flexible outsole accommodates natural foot strike patterns
  • Breathable material keeps feet comfortable in warmer climates
  • Adaptive Flywire system ensures a secure, locked-in fit for various foot shapes

Cons

  • Minimalist support may not be suitable for those needing heavy motion control
  • Lacks aggressive deep-lug traction for off-road or muddy trail running
  • Not intended for high-intensity lifting where a rigid sole is required

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best fit, adjust the laces starting from the bottom eyelets to tighten the Flywire cables across your midfoot. Ensure you are wearing your preferred athletic socks during the initial fitting to account for proper volume.

For care, avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the adhesives. Instead, spot clean the upper with mild soap and cold water using a soft brush. Air dry in a cool, shaded area to prevent the foam from warping due to excessive heat exposure.
