FAQs

Are these shoes water-resistant?

No, the breathable mesh construction is porous and will allow water through.

Can I use these for lifting weights?

They are suitable for light training, but the soft, flexible sole may not be stable enough for heavy barbell squats or deadlifts.

Is the insole removable?

Yes, the standard insole is typically removable if you need to insert custom orthotics.

Do these run true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing conventions for Nike athletic footwear.

What is the primary material?

The upper is constructed from engineered mesh to provide a balance of support and airflow.

Troubleshooting

Feeling of slipping at the heel

Try using the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to secure the heel lock more firmly.

Dirt stuck in the sole grooves

Gently pry debris out with a dull plastic tool or stiff dry brush after the mud has dried.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptionally lightweight feel
  • Highly flexible construction for natural motion
  • Breathable fabric keeps feet cool
  • Stylish black and grey colorway matches most outfits

Cons

  • Not intended for heavy-duty marathon training
  • Minimalist support compared to structured stability shoes
  • Mesh material may be prone to staining in mud or heavy rain

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the best fit, ensure you are wearing the appropriate athletic socks that you intend to use for your activities. The Flex 2017 RN features standard lacing, allowing you to customize the tension across the midfoot. For care, avoid machine washing these shoes, as this can degrade the foam integrity and glue bonds. Instead, spot clean with a soft brush, warm water, and mild detergent. Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the materials from warping or becoming brittle.
