FAQs
What is ReactX foam?
ReactX foam is a responsive cushioning technology developed by Nike. It's engineered to provide a soft, springy, and energetic feel, returning more energy with each stride compared to traditional foams, enhancing comfort and performance.
Are these shoes suitable for everyday school wear?
Yes, the Nike Vomero 18 GS shoes are designed for all-day comfort and durability, making them an excellent choice for everyday school wear, active play, and general use.
How do I determine the correct size for my child?
It's best to measure your child's foot length and width and compare it to Nike's official size chart. Ensure there's about a thumb's width of space between their longest toe and the end of the shoe for optimal comfort and growth.
Can these shoes be machine washed?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash these shoes as it can damage the materials and adhesive. Please follow the care instructions provided in the 'Care' section for cleaning.
Do these shoes offer good ankle support?
The Vomero 18 GS features a standard low-cut design focused on cushioning and breathability, offering flexible ankle movement. For specific ankle support needs, consult a professional or consider shoes designed with higher ankle collars.
What does 'GS' stand for in the product name?
'GS' stands for Grade School, indicating that these shoes are sized and designed for older children, typically around 7-12 years old, depending on their foot size.
Troubleshooting
My child's feet feel too hot or sweaty.
Ensure your child is wearing appropriate socks, preferably moisture-wicking athletic socks. The mesh upper is designed for breathability, but sock material can significantly impact comfort. Also, verify the shoe size isn't too tight, which can restrict airflow.
The shoes feel too loose or too tight.
Adjust the classic laces. For a tighter fit, pull the laces firmly. For a looser fit, ease them. If persistent, re-check the shoe size against your child's current foot measurements. Children's feet grow quickly, so a size change might be needed.
The outsole seems to be losing grip.
First, clean the outsole thoroughly to remove any embedded dirt or debris that might be reducing traction. If the nubby pods show significant wear, it might indicate the shoes are nearing the end of their useful life for optimal performance.
There's an uncomfortable rub or pressure point.
Check sock fit and material. Sometimes new shoes need a short break-in period. If the discomfort persists, ensure the laces aren't tied too tightly in one area. If it continues, the shoe may not be the best fit for your child's specific foot shape, or a different lacing technique might help.

Care
To extend the life of your Nike Vomero 18 GS shoes and keep them performing their best:
- Cleaning:

- Mix a small amount of mild soap with cool water.
- Gently scrub the upper and sole with a soft cloth or sponge dipped in the soapy water. Avoid saturating the shoes.
- Wipe clean with a damp cloth to remove any soap residue.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or using heat sources like radiators, as this can damage materials. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
