FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the Nike Downshifter 12 typically follows standard Nike sizing; however, it is recommended to leave a thumb's width of space at the front for optimal comfort.

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash your trainers, as this can damage the foam and glues; hand cleaning is the best way to extend their lifespan.

Is this model suitable for marathon running?

While durable and comfortable, this shoe is primarily designed for daily training and gym use rather than high-mileage racing.

What is the best way to store the trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the materials from becoming brittle or discolored.

Can I replace the insoles with custom orthotics?

Yes, the stock insoles are removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if preferred.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming untied during use

Double knot the laces or use a runner's loop (heel lock) to increase security.

Excessive moisture or sweat accumulation

Remove the insoles after use to allow the interior to dry completely and consider moisture-wicking socks.

Feeling of slipping inside the shoe

Re-lace the shoe using the additional eyelet at the top to create a tighter heel lock.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Nike Downshifter 12 trainers, proper care is essential. When you first receive your shoes, ensure the lacing is adjusted to your preferred tension to accommodate your specific foot volume. Keep these trainers away from abrasive surfaces to maintain the integrity of the outsole treads. If they become dirty, clean them using a soft brush to remove loose debris, followed by a gentle wipe-down with a damp cloth and mild soap. Always air-dry them away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the cushioning materials and adhesives.
