FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they provide excellent shock absorption for gym workouts and short, light jogs, they are primarily designed as trainers rather than dedicated long-distance running shoes.
How do I determine the right size?
These shoes follow standard UK sizing. We recommend checking your foot length against our sizing chart, ensuring a snug but comfortable fit in the midfoot.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity and the responsive cushioning materials. Always opt for hand-cleaning.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
No, the breathable mesh construction is designed for airflow, which means they are not waterproof and should be avoided in heavy rain.
What is the primary material used?
The Nike Flex Train uses high-quality synthetic mesh for the upper and a durable rubber compound for the outsole to ensure longevity.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt accumulation in the mesh upper
Use a soft brush to dislodge debris and wipe with a damp, soapy cloth. Allow to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources.
Feeling of slipping on smooth surfaces
Check the rubber outsole for any debris or oily residue stuck in the grooves. Clean the tread with a damp cloth.
Loss of internal cushioning feel
Ensure the factory-provided insole is lying flat and has not shifted during wear. If necessary, remove and reposition.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Flex Train trainers last, follow these care and setup recommendations:
- Fit Check: Ensure the size UK 7 (or your specific variant) allows for a thumb-width of space in the toe box for optimal comfort.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the outsole. For the mesh upper, gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid submerging in water or using a washing machine as this can compromise the adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the degradation of rubber components and fading of the grey colorway.
- Surface Compatibility: Best performance is achieved on flat, dry surfaces like wood gym floors, rubber mats, or paved tracks.
