FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
They are ideal for moderate distances and casual runs, but for marathon-level training, you may prefer a shoe with more substantial impact cushioning.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the structural integrity and materials of the trainer. Hand cleaning is always safer.
Do these trainers fit true to size?
Most users find the Nike Flex 2017 RN to fit true to size; however, those with wider feet might consider half a size up.
Can I wear these for weightlifting?
They are suitable for general fitness and bodyweight training, but for heavy powerlifting, a shoe with a flatter, stiffer sole is typically recommended.
How do I ensure the best fit for UK size 6.5?
The size 6.5 provides a balanced fit; we recommend trying them on in the afternoon when your feet are slightly swollen to ensure the fit remains comfortable throughout the day.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt accumulation on the upper mesh
Use a soft brush to gently remove surface debris, followed by a light wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry naturally.
Sensation of heel slippage while moving
Ensure the laces are threaded through the top eyelet (the runner's loop) to increase security around the ankle collar.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Flex 2017 RN trainers maintain their performance, follow these care guidelines:
- Fit Check: Ensure the size is appropriate for your foot shape; the UK 6.5 size offers a standard fit that should be snug without causing pressure points.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft-bristled brush. Use a damp cloth with mild detergent to spot-clean the upper fabric. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a clothes dryer, as this can degrade the adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material fading and rubber degradation.
- Rotation: If you use the shoes for daily training, allowing them 24 hours to air out between sessions will extend the life of the internal lining and help control odors.
