Full details

The Nike Reax 8 TR is designed for adult athletes seeking a reliable training shoe that balances responsive cushioning with structural support. Its standout feature is the integrated Reax heel system, which effectively absorbs impact during high-intensity movements. While these trainers excel in gym and fitness environments, they are primarily optimized for stability and training rather than long-distance road running.

FAQs

Are these shoes good for running?

While they provide excellent support for gym work, they are not optimized for long-distance running; consider a dedicated running shoe for that purpose.

How do I determine the right size?

Nike Reax 8 TR models generally follow standard UK sizing; we recommend selecting your usual athletic footwear size.

Can I remove the insoles?

Yes, the provided insoles are removable, allowing you to use your own custom orthotics if preferred.

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

The design is standard; however, the lace-up closure allows for some adjustability to accommodate slightly wider feet.

How should I clean the white exterior?

Use a soft-bristled brush with a mixture of water and gentle detergent, focusing on the mesh areas to remove stains.

Troubleshooting

Feeling discomfort in the arch area

Adjust the lace tightness to ensure a secure lockdown; consider adding an aftermarket insole if additional arch support is needed.

Squeaking sound from the heel

Ensure the outsole is free of debris. If the noise persists, check if the inner heel lining has become loose from wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Nike Reax 8 TR trainers maintain their performance, follow these guidelines:

  • Break-in Period: Wear the shoes for short sessions initially to allow the cushioning to adapt to your foot shape.
  • Fit: Ensure you have a thumbs-width of space at the front of the shoe to avoid toe discomfort during intense activity.
  • Cleaning: Wipe the exterior mesh and nylon materials with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using a washing machine, as this can degrade the adhesive and cushioning properties.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to prevent the sole from warping or hardening.
