FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?
No, the Nike V2K Run is designed as a lifestyle trainer for daily use and is not engineered for high-performance long-distance running.
How should I clean the faux leather parts?
Wipe the faux leather areas gently with a soft, damp cloth and a mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals that may strip the finish.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to wash these in a machine, as the heat and agitation can damage the structural integrity and cushioning.
Do these run true to size?
They generally follow standard Nike sizing. If you have worn Nike trainers before, we recommend sticking with your usual size.
What materials are the trainers made of?
Depending on the specific variant, these trainers incorporate materials like polyester, faux leather, and nylon to balance durability and style.
Are they waterproof?
The materials are not waterproof. We advise avoiding heavy rain to keep the shoes in the best condition.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the toe box
Use a shoe tree when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the original shape and minimize material fatigue.
Soles becoming slippery
Wipe the outsoles with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust or debris that may reduce traction on smooth indoor surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Nike V2K Run trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure you are using the correct UK size. It is recommended to try these on with the type of socks you intend to wear daily for an accurate fit.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the upper. For deeper stains on the synthetic surfaces, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth. Do not submerge the shoes in water.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent colour fading and material degradation.
