FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
While the Defy All Day is excellent for gym training and everyday use, it is not specifically engineered for long-distance road running. For that activity, look for a dedicated Nike running model.
How do I maintain the white leather finish?
Wipe the surface with a damp cloth immediately after use to prevent dirt buildup. Using a leather-safe cleaning solution and a soft cloth will keep them clean.
Can I remove the insole?
Yes, the insole is designed to be removable if you prefer to use custom orthotic inserts.
Is the material waterproof?
The leather upper provides some protection against light moisture, but it is not waterproof and should not be submerged.
What is the best way to store these trainers?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration of the white leather and potential damage to the cushioning materials.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff or tight when new
Leather requires a break-in period. Wear the shoes for short intervals indoors for a few days to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot shape.
Outsole losing traction
Check the tread for embedded debris or buildup. Use a soft brush to clear out the flex grooves to ensure optimal surface contact.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Defy All Day trainers remain in peak condition, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes are standard fit; choose your regular UK shoe size for the best results.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove loose dirt from the leather upper. For deeper stains, wipe gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes or using a washing machine, as this can degrade the leather and the adhesives.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources such as radiators or heaters, which can cause the leather to crack or the foam to lose its shape.
- Care: Consider using a leather protectant spray to repel water and stains, keeping the white finish looking fresh for longer.
