Product Information

Full details

The Nike ReactX Infinity Run 4 GORE-TEX is designed for male runners seeking a balance of reliable support and weather protection. Its standout feature is the integration of advanced ReactX cushioning paired with a waterproof GORE-TEX upper, making it an ideal choice for training in wet or unpredictable conditions. While it offers excellent responsiveness and comfort, users should be aware that the added weatherproofing may make the shoe feel slightly less breathable than standard non-GORE-TEX summer running shoes.

FAQs

Is the shoe truly waterproof?

Yes, the GORE-TEX upper is designed to be waterproof, protecting your feet from rain and puddles, though it is not intended for full submersion.

How does ReactX differ from standard React foam?

ReactX foam is engineered to provide more energy return and performance responsiveness compared to traditional React foam.

Can I use these for trail running?

While durable, these are primarily designed for road running. They can handle light trails, but may lack the aggressive grip needed for technical off-road terrain.

Does the GORE-TEX make the shoe stiff?

The GORE-TEX integration is designed to maintain flexibility; however, it may feel slightly more structured or dense than a standard unlined mesh runner.

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, machine washing can damage the specialized materials and the GORE-TEX waterproof membrane. Always hand clean with mild soap and water.

Troubleshooting

Water entering from the ankle cuff

Ensure your socks are tall enough to create a seal against the cuff and adjust the laces to provide a secure fit around the ankle.

Accumulated dirt on upper

Use a soft brush to remove dried mud and then wipe gently with a damp cloth; avoid harsh detergents that may strip the water-repellent treatment.

Interior feels damp after a long run

This is likely moisture buildup from perspiration due to the waterproof lining; remove the insoles and stuff the shoes with dry paper to absorb internal moisture overnight.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof protection for rainy training days
  • Superior responsive cushioning with ReactX technology
  • Stable build for long-distance reliability
  • Versatile black colorway for multiple occasions

Cons

  • Lower breathability compared to mesh-only running shoes
  • Slightly heavier feel due to the GORE-TEX layer
  • Limited to specific athletic use cases in warm weather

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best performance from your Nike ReactX Infinity Run 4, ensure the sizing is correct for your foot width to maximize the comfort of the ReactX foam. For care, wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth after runs in muddy or salty conditions. Do not machine wash or dry, as this can degrade the waterproof properties of the GORE-TEX membrane. Air dry the shoes naturally at room temperature with the insoles removed to ensure moisture evaporates completely from the interior.
