FAQs
Is the Nike Quest 7 good for marathons?
The Quest 7 is designed for daily training and everyday road runs; while durable, it is best suited for shorter to mid-distance training rather than extreme long-distance racing.
Can I use these on a treadmill?
Yes, the neutral, grippy outsole performs effectively on treadmill belts.
Does this shoe offer arch support?
The Quest 7 is a neutral shoe, meaning it provides minimal corrective support and is intended for runners with a natural gait.
How should I store them when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the foam cushioning.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Quest 7 uses a breathable mesh upper designed to let air flow through, meaning they are not waterproof.
Can I replace the insole?
Yes, the factory sockliner is removable if you choose to use custom orthotic inserts.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels unstable inside the shoe
Adjust the laces using the 'runner's loop' or 'heel lock' lacing method to enhance ankle and heel security.
Visible dirt on the mesh upper
Use a soft-bristled brush to dry-clean the mesh. For stubborn spots, use a tiny amount of mild detergent on a damp cloth, then air dry.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Quest 7 trainers maintain their performance, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While ready for use out of the box, perform a few shorter, 3-5km walks or jogs to allow the foam to adapt to your foot shape.
- Sizing: Ensure the UK 8.5 size (or your specific variant) allows for a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to prevent blisters.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush after road runs. If necessary, clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using a washing machine.
- Drying: Air dry only in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heaters, which can warp the midsole foam.
