FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the Shox cushioning?

The Shox cushioning system, with its four innovative columns under the heel, is designed to provide responsive cushioning and a unique feel that absorbs impact effectively.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The Nike Shox Ride 2 are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle use. While they offer cushioning, they are not optimized for high-impact running activities.

How do I determine my correct UK shoe size?

Refer to standard UK sizing charts. The product details indicate UK sizes; ensure you select the size that best matches your foot measurement.

What is the material of the Nike Shox Ride 2?

The trainers feature a premium leather upper with leather overlays for a luxe finish and durability. The outsole is made of rubber.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the leather can offer some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to maintain the material's quality and longevity.

How should I care for the leather upper?

Clean the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner sparingly. Avoid excessive moisture and allow to air dry naturally.

What is the design inspiration for the Shox Ride 2?

The design is inspired by the audacious style of the early 2000s, bringing back a true-to-form retro aesthetic with modern comfort technology.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff on first wear

The leather upper and Shox cushioning may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time to allow the materials to conform to your foot.

Difficulty cleaning Shox columns

Use a small brush (like an old toothbrush) with mild soap and water to gently clean debris from the Shox columns. Wipe clean with a damp cloth afterwards.

Squeaking noise from the sole

This can sometimes occur with new cushioning systems. Ensure the outsole is clean. If the noise persists, it may be an internal characteristic of the cushioning and often resolves with continued wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Nike Shox Ride 2 Trainers require no setup out of the box; they are ready to wear immediately upon purchase.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for men and are compatible with standard sock wear. They are intended for casual use and are not specifically designed for specialized athletic activities, so compatibility with performance-focused sports gear may be limited.

Care Instructions:

  • Leather Upper: Clean the leather upper using a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For stubborn marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid excessive water.
  • Midsole/Outsole: Wipe down the Shox columns and rubber outsole with a damp cloth. Ensure no debris is lodged in the Shox columns.
  • Storage: Store the trainers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to maintain the integrity of the materials. Using shoe trees can help preserve their shape.
  • Drying: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather and adhesives.
