FAQs

What does ISPA stand for?

ISPA stands for Improvise, Scavenge, Protect, and Adapt, representing Nike's line of innovative and problem-solving footwear.

What are the primary materials used in the Nike ISPA Drifter Split 'NTRL'?

The upper is primarily crafted from undyed, basket-weave hemp and suede, with a midsole made from recycled ZoomX foam and a cork-infused rubber outsole.

How do I clean the hemp and suede upper?

Gently wipe with a dry cloth for dust. For minor stains on hemp, use a slightly damp cloth and air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Is the split-toe design comfortable for everyone?

The split-toe design is inspired by traditional Japanese footwear and may require an adjustment period for some users. It's recommended to break them in gradually.

What is the purpose of the cork in the outsole?

The cork infused into the rubber outsole provides added durability and contributes to the shoe's natural aesthetic and sustainable design elements.

Are these trainers suitable for athletic performance?

While offering responsive cushioning, these trainers are primarily designed for everyday activities and casual wear, rather than high-intensity athletic performance.

What is the typical retail price of this model?

The Nike ISPA Drifter Split 'NTRL' was released with a retail price of $200.

Troubleshooting

Fit feels too snug or loose

Adjust the integrated beige webbing lace system to achieve a more personalized and secure fit. Ensure the laces are evenly tensioned across the foot.

Discomfort with the split-toe design

Allow for a break-in period, as the split-toe design may feel unfamiliar initially. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time as your feet adjust.

Surface marks on the hemp upper

Use a soft, dry brush or cloth to gently remove dust. For light marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by air drying. Avoid machine washing or harsh cleaning agents.

Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces

The cork-infused rubber outsole offers good traction, but like all footwear, performance may be reduced on extremely wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris.
