FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the Nike Vomero 18 features a breathable mesh upper which allows air to pass through, meaning water can also penetrate the shoe.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The mesh upper offers a flexible fit that conforms to most foot shapes, though it is designed to a standard width.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as the heat and agitation can weaken the structural integrity of the foam and glue.

What is the primary surface for this shoe?

These trainers perform best on paved roads, sidewalks, and track surfaces.

Do these provide arch support?

The stacked ReactX midsole provides neutral cushioning that supports the natural foot strike of an active child.

How do I determine the right size?

Refer to the specific UK children's size guide and ensure there is roughly a half-inch of space between the longest toe and the front of the shoe.

Troubleshooting

The foam midsole feels less bouncy over time.

Foam compression is normal with wear. Ensure the child wears the shoes for the intended running activities rather than heavy-duty work.

Mesh upper is holding dirt and dust.

Use a soft dry brush to flick away dirt after every use to prevent grime from becoming embedded in the mesh fibers.

Reduced traction on smooth floors.

Check the outsole pods for trapped small rocks or debris; use a toothpick or soft brush to clear the gaps between the rubber pods.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Nike Vomero 18 trainers, follow these care and maintenance tips:

  1. Fit Check: Ensure the shoes are properly sized for the child's foot with a small amount of room in the toe box for growth.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt from the mesh upper. For stubborn stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap.
  3. Drying: Air dry the shoes naturally at room temperature. Avoid placing them near direct heat sources or in a clothes dryer, as high heat can damage the foam and adhesive.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent material degradation.
