FAQs

What does 'ISPA' stand for?

ISPA stands for Improvise, Scavenge, Protect, and Adapt. It's a Nike design philosophy focused on creative problem-solving using sustainable methods.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

No, the Nike ISPA Drifter Split NTRL trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, not for high-impact athletic activities like running.

How do I clean the cork elements?

The cork elements can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure they are dried thoroughly afterward.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The primary material of the upper is undyed, basket-weave natural hemp, complemented by suede overlays.

What is the benefit of the recycled ZoomX midsole?

The recycled ZoomX midsole provides responsive cushioning and energy return for enhanced comfort during daily wear, while also utilizing sustainable materials.

How does the split-toe design affect fit?

The split-toe design separates the big toe from the other toes, which can allow for a more natural foot splay and movement. It may feel different from traditional shoe designs initially.

Troubleshooting

Split-toe design feels uncomfortable

Allow a break-in period of a few wears to let your feet adjust. Ensure the laces are adjusted for a snug but not overly tight fit.

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a suede eraser or a soft brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, consult a suede cleaning guide or use a specialized suede cleaner sparingly. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

Hemp material feels stiff

Natural hemp can soften with wear. Gentle flexing of the shoe and continued wear will help improve flexibility.

Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces

While the cork and rubber outsole offer good grip, always exercise caution on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris.

Care:

  • Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
