Full details

FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The Nike Waffle Debut trainers are best suited for casual wear, walking, and light jogging. They are not designed with the advanced support and cushioning required for high-intensity running.

How do I clean the suede parts?

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove dry dirt and dust. For tougher stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid using water on suede if possible, and always let them air dry.

What is the main benefit of the waffle outsole?

The waffle outsole provides excellent durability and reliable traction on a variety of surfaces, a signature feature inspired by Nike's early designs.

Can these be worn by women?

While marketed towards men, the 'Unisex Sneakers' description suggests they can be worn by individuals of any gender seeking a similar style and fit. Sizing may need to be adjusted for a women's fit.

What is the material of the upper?

The upper is a combination of suede and textile materials, offering a blend of premium texture, durability, and breathability.

How should I store these trainers when not in use?

It is recommended to store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from shoes

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and midsole. Try removing the insole, cleaning both surfaces, and reinserting the insole securely. A small amount of baby powder under the insole can also help.

Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces

The waffle pattern is optimized for dry conditions. For wet surfaces, proceed with caution as grip may be compromised. Ensure the outsole is clean of any debris.

Discomfort or pressure points

Ensure the correct size is being worn. Break in the shoes by wearing them for short periods initially. If the discomfort persists, consider the fit for your foot type, as these are designed for a standard fit.
