Product Information
Full details
The Nike Structure 26 Trainers are engineered for adult runners who require a reliable balance of stability and cushioning during their daily fitness routine. By utilizing a full-length React X Foam midsole, these trainers provide excellent energy return and comfort for both short training sessions and long-distance runs. While they excel in support, users should note that the stability-focused build may feel slightly heavier than minimalist racing flats, making them best suited for training rather than pure speed work.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
Yes, the Structure 26 is designed with stability in mind, which is generally beneficial for runners who have flat feet or overpronation.
Can I use these for marathon training?
Absolutely. The full-length cushioning and stability features make them a great choice for the high-mileage demands of marathon training.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, they feature an engineered mesh upper designed for breathability. They will allow water to pass through if you step in a puddle.
How often should I replace these trainers?
It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and gait.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the sockliner is removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if required.
Troubleshooting
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Re-lace the shoes using the 'runner's loop' or 'heel lock' technique through the extra eyelet at the top.
Visible dirt on mesh
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dried mud; avoid scrubbing aggressively to protect the mesh integrity.
Foam feels compressed after long storage
Foam often recovers after wearing for 15-20 minutes as the ambient heat and pressure reactivate the cushioning properties.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Consistent and reliable arch support
- High level of underfoot cushioning for joint protection

Cons
- Slightly heavier build compared to lightweight racing shoes
- Stability features may feel restrictive to neutral runners

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your Nike Structure 26 trainers, begin by loosening the laces fully before your first run to allow the engineered mesh upper to conform to your foot shape. For sizing, these are standard adult athletic fits, though if you prefer to use aftermarket orthotics, consider sizing up by a half size. To clean your shoes, avoid machine washing. Instead, remove surface dirt with a soft brush and clean the exterior with a mild soap solution and a damp cloth. Air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to preserve the integrity of the foam cushioning.
