FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The Nike Waffle Debut Trainers are primarily designed for everyday casual wear and walking, offering comfort and style. While they provide shock absorption, they are not engineered for the specialized demands of high-performance running.
How do I determine my correct size?
We recommend referring to Nike's official sizing chart. If possible, try them on to ensure the best fit, as individual foot shapes can vary. Our specific model is UK 5.
What is the Waffle sole technology?
The Waffle sole is an iconic Nike innovation known for its excellent traction and durability, originally inspired by a waffle iron. It provides reliable grip for various surfaces and contributes to the shoe's classic aesthetic.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and adhesives. Please refer to the 'Care' section for recommended cleaning methods.
What kind of socks should I wear with these?
For optimal comfort and to manage moisture, wear athletic or casual socks made from breathable materials like cotton or a moisture-wicking blend.
Are these shoes slip-resistant on wet surfaces?
The Waffle outsole provides reliable non-slip traction on many common surfaces. However, caution should always be exercised on extremely wet, icy, or slick surfaces, as no shoe is completely slip-proof.
Troubleshooting
My trainers feel too tight/loose.
Ensure you have the correct size. Adjust the lacing system to customize the fit – try different lacing patterns for more room or a tighter hold. Consider wearing socks of varying thickness.
The sole seems to be losing its grip.
Clean the outsole regularly to remove any embedded dirt or debris that might be reducing traction. For older shoes, excessive wear on the tread may indicate it's time for a new pair.
There's an unpleasant odour inside the shoes.
Allow the shoes to air out completely after each use. Use an athletic shoe deodorizer spray or place baking soda sachets inside the shoes overnight to absorb moisture and neutralize smells. Ensure socks are clean and breathable.
The light-coloured fabric is getting dirty quickly.
Regularly clean visible marks with a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. For preventative measures, apply a shoe protector spray designed for fabric and synthetic materials before first wear and periodically thereafter.

Care
To keep your trainers looking their best and prolong their lifespan:
- Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, which can damage materials.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, which can cause materials to crack or shrink.
- Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees or stuffing with paper can help maintain their shape.
- Odour Control: If needed, use shoe deodorizers or place baking soda in the shoes overnight to absorb odours.
