Product Information
Full details
The Nike Vomero 18 trainers are designed for active kids who need a balance of comfort and energy return for daily movement and running. Featuring advanced ReactX foam technology, these shoes provide a responsive, bouncy stride that minimizes impact on developing joints. While these trainers excel at providing breathability during high-intensity activity, parents should note that the specialized foam may require a short break-in period to reach optimal comfort levels.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Nike Vomero 18 has a standard fit. If your child has very wide feet, you may want to try them on in-store to ensure the midfoot lockdown is comfortable.
Can these be used for sports like soccer or basketball?
These are primarily designed as daily trainers and running shoes. They do not provide the lateral support needed for court sports.
What is the best way to dry them if they get wet?
Remove the insoles and stuff the shoes with paper towels to absorb moisture. Let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
How often should kids replace these trainers?
Generally, running trainers should be replaced every 300-500 miles, or sooner if the tread wears down significantly or the foot outgrows the shoe.
Do these shoes come with removable insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, which is helpful if you need to insert custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
The trainers feel stiff when first worn
This is normal for high-performance foam. Wear them for 1-2 hours of low-intensity activity to allow the ReactX foam to soften.
Foot feels too hot during activity
Ensure the laces are not tied excessively tight and consider using moisture-wicking synthetic socks rather than thick cotton ones.
Laces coming untied frequently
Use a double knot or ensure the laces are pulled evenly from the bottom eyelets to the top to maintain proper tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longest life for your Nike Vomero 18 trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes are available in a range of UK children's sizes; ensure you measure feet in the afternoon when they are at their largest.
- Break-in: Wear the shoes for short periods over the first few days to allow the foam to adapt to the shape of your child's foot.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. Use a damp cloth with mild soap to spot clean the upper. Never machine wash or tumble dry, as heat can damage the foam and adhesive.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the materials from fading or hardening.
