Product Information
Full details
The Nike SB Vertebrae trainers are designed for adult skaters and streetwear enthusiasts who prioritize a balance of durability, structural support, and classic aesthetic. These trainers excel at providing a stable platform for daily activities and demanding movement, though users looking for specialized lightweight running or ultra-cushioned marathon gear may find the robust construction slightly heavier than performance-focused athletic shoes.

FAQs
Are the Nike SB Vertebrae trainers suitable for wide feet?
The round toe design offers a generous fit, though those with significantly wide feet may prefer to size up by half.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can compromise the structural adhesives and materials.
What is the primary material used?
The Nike SB Vertebrae features a high-quality blend of materials focused on durability, specifically suited for the demands of the SB series.
Are these shoes good for walking long distances?
While comfortable for casual walking and daily wear, they are designed primarily for skate and lifestyle use rather than distance walking or athletic running.
How do I ensure I order the right size?
The SB Vertebrae generally fits true to size. Consult the UK sizing guide for your specific model and compare it with your current Nike footwear.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight initially
Wear them for short periods around the house to allow the upper materials to naturally flex and conform to your foot.
Accumulation of dirt in the textured areas
Use a dry, medium-stiff brush to gently dislodge debris from the crevices without wetting the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike SB Vertebrae trainers last as long as possible, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Like most high-quality leather or synthetic trainers, allow for a short break-in period to let the materials soften to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristle brush to remove dry dirt from the upper. For deeper stains, use a mild soap solution with a damp cloth, avoiding abrasive chemicals that might affect the University Red accents.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the colours from fading.
- Compatibility: These trainers fit true to size. If you are between sizes or plan to wear thicker socks for added cushioning, consider your standard Nike size as a primary reference.
