Product Information
Full details
The Nike Flex Runner 3 is designed for active kids who need a versatile trainer that handles all-day play with ease. Its primary benefit is the lace-free, stretchy bootie construction, which allows for quick transitions from school to the playground; however, parents should note that because the fit is slip-on and highly flexible, it may not offer the same level of lockdown support as a traditional lace-up running shoe for intensive athletic sports.

FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is recommended to clean these shoes by hand with a damp cloth. Machine washing can compromise the adhesive and material flexibility.
Do these have actual laces?
No, the Nike Flex Runner 3 is a lace-free, slip-on design.
Are they suitable for wider feet?
The stretchy bootie design is quite accommodating for different foot shapes, though individual fit varies.
Can these be used for soccer or tennis?
These are designed as general-purpose kids' trainers. They lack the lateral support required for high-intensity sports like soccer or tennis.
How do I know if the size is right?
There should be about a thumb's width of space between the child's longest toe and the front of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty getting the foot inside the shoe
Ensure both the heel and tongue pull tabs are utilized simultaneously to widen the opening.
Foot slipping inside the shoe
The child may be wearing a size that is too large; consider using a thin athletic sock to increase bulk or sizing down.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers require no "setup" beyond ensuring the correct size. To maintain the life of the footwear, avoid machine washing when possible; instead, wipe down the mesh upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. If the shoes get wet, air dry them away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the materials. To ensure the best fit, monitor the child's foot growth every few months to ensure toes have enough room in the front of the bootie.
