FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for marathon running?
While the Shox system offers excellent impact absorption, these trainers are primarily designed for shorter runs, training, and casual wear. For marathon distances, dedicated long-distance running shoes might offer more optimized cushioning and support.
How do I ensure the best fit for my Size 10.5 UK?
The one-piece fitted upper aims for a snug fit. Try them on with the type of socks you typically wear. Ensure there's a little room in the toe box and no excessive tightness or slipping at the heel.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the Shox system, midsole, and upper materials. Hand cleaning with mild soap and water is the preferred method.
What is the main benefit of the Shox system?
The main benefit of the Nike Shox system is its ability to provide adaptive impact protection and responsiveness, absorbing shock effectively and returning energy.
Do these trainers offer good ventilation?
Yes, the perforated frame and the gilly lacing system are designed to promote airflow and keep your feet ventilated.
Are these trainers waterproof?
These trainers are not designed to be waterproof. They offer some resistance to light moisture but are not suitable for use in heavy rain or wet conditions.
Where is the carbon rubber located on the shoe?
Carbon rubber is strategically placed under the heel of the outsole to provide enhanced resistance to abrasion in this high-wear area.
Troubleshooting
Unusual squeaking sound
This can sometimes occur with the Shox system. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or WD-40 (sparingly) to the affected column area. Ensure no debris is trapped within the columns.
Laces not holding securely
Ensure the gilly lacing system is engaged correctly. If laces are worn, consider replacing them with new, durable laces.
Discomfort after initial wear
The Shox NZ may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time as they conform to your foot.
Reduced traction on wet surfaces
The Waffle outsole provides good traction, but like most rubber outsoles, performance can be reduced on very wet or slippery surfaces. Clean the outsole regularly to remove any caked-on dirt.
