FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor running?
These trainers are primarily designed for gym use and training; while they work for short jogs, they lack the specific support and rugged durability needed for long-distance outdoor running.
Do these trainers provide arch support?
They feature standard athletic support suitable for neutral arches. If you have severe pronation issues, you may consider adding custom orthotic insoles.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as the agitation and heat can damage the structural integrity and the performance foam.
Are they true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard sizing for Nike athletic footwear. We recommend ordering your usual athletic shoe size.
How often should I replace them?
It is generally recommended to replace training shoes every 300-500 miles of use, or sooner if you notice the foam cushioning losing its responsiveness or the tread wearing thin.
Troubleshooting
Foot slipping inside the shoe during exercise
Try the 'runner's loop' or 'heel lock' lacing technique to secure the ankle more firmly.
Visible dirt accumulation on the mesh
Use a dry, soft brush to gently knock debris out of the mesh pores before wiping with a damp microfiber cloth.
Unpleasant odor after frequent use
Remove the insoles to air out separately and use a specialized athletic shoe deodorizer spray once completely dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Nike Flex Train trainers, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Lacing: Ensure the laces are snug but not overly tight to maintain circulation and prevent foot cramping during heavy lifting.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh upper. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid fully submerging the trainers in water.
- Drying: Always air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as high heat can damage the foam cushioning and adhesive bonds.
- Surface Compatibility: Best utilized on indoor gym surfaces. Prolonged use on rough asphalt or concrete will cause the rubber outsole to wear down significantly faster than intended.
