FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the Flyknit fibers and the foam midsole. We recommend hand cleaning with a mild detergent.
Can I use these for long-distance running?
Yes, the React foam is designed for energy return and impact absorption, making them suitable for road running.
Does the sizing run true to size?
The Flyknit material has a snug, sock-like fit. Most users find them true to size, but those who prefer extra room in the toe box may consider a half-size up.
Are they waterproof?
No, the Flyknit upper is designed for breathability and will allow water to pass through if walking in heavy rain.
How often should I replace these trainers?
Depending on usage, performance trainers are typically replaced every 300 to 500 miles to ensure the cushioning properties remain effective.
Troubleshooting
Knit upper feels loose after extended use
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly to tighten the midfoot wrap. If the material has lost elasticity, avoid wearing socks that are too thin.
Foam sole appears discolored
Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a mild dish soap solution and a soft sponge to spot-clean the foam area. Rinse lightly with a damp cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Nike Epic React Flyknit trainers, begin by ensuring a proper fit; the Flyknit upper should feel snug like a sock without pinching. When cleaning, avoid the washing machine, as high heat and heavy agitation can damage the delicate knit weave. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush with mild soap and cold water to gently remove dirt from the outsole and surface. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct sunlight or radiators, which can cause the foam to warp or the fabric to lose its elasticity.
