Product Information
Full details
The Nike Flex Runner 4 is an ideal trainer for active kids who need a reliable, slip-on shoe for everyday play and school activities. Designed for convenience and comfort, it features a laceless, elastic strap system that keeps the shoe secure without the hassle of tying knots; however, the lack of traditional adjustable laces may not provide a customizable fit for children with exceptionally narrow or wide feet.

FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is recommended to clean these by hand with a damp cloth. Machine washing can damage the elastic components and the shoe's structure.
Do these trainers have a removable insole?
Yes, the insoles are generally removable to allow for easier cleaning or the insertion of custom orthotics if required.
Are they suitable for wider feet?
The elastic strap design offers a flexible fit, but those with wider feet should ensure the elastic does not feel overly restrictive over the arch.
Can these be used for sports like soccer?
These are primarily designed for casual wear and general play. They do not offer the specific support needed for competitive field sports.
How do I determine the right size for my child?
It is recommended to measure the child's foot in the afternoon when it is at its largest and ensure there is roughly a thumb's width of space at the toe.
Do the elastic straps lose their tension over time?
Like all elastic materials, they may experience minor wear after extensive use, but they are designed to maintain their shape throughout the life of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty sliding the foot into the shoe
Ensure the heel tab is pulled fully back and the upper elastic strap is loosened while guiding the foot into the opening.
Accumulation of debris inside the shoe
Periodically remove the inner liners and shake the shoes upside down to clear small stones or playground debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:
- Regularly wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove mud and dust.
- Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the material.
- If the insoles become damp, remove them to dry separately.
- Avoid machine washing to preserve the integrity of the elastic straps and structural adhesives.
