FAQs
How do I properly put on the Nike GO FlyEase?
Simply step into the shoe. The unique hinge system will open to accommodate your foot, and then it will snap securely in place around your heel once your foot is fully inside.
How do I take off the Nike GO FlyEase hands-free?
To remove, push down on the back of the shoe with your other foot on the semi-detachable kickstand heel. This action will release the tension and allow you to slide your foot out.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The GO FlyEase is designed primarily for walking, everyday wear, and light training activities. While comfortable, they may not offer the specialized support and lockdown required for intense running compared to dedicated running shoes.
What does 'bi-stable hinge' mean?
A bi-stable hinge is a mechanical component that can securely hold two distinct positions. In the GO FlyEase, it allows the shoe to remain open for entry and then snap closed firmly around the foot.
Can the kickstand heel be removed?
The kickstand heel is semi-detachable, meaning it is designed to flex and allow for easy removal but is not meant to be fully removed from the shoe during normal use.
What is the main benefit of the tension band?
The tension band works in conjunction with the hinge to create the secure fit around the foot once it's on, ensuring the shoe stays comfortably in place without laces.
How do I clean the white mesh uppers?
Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt. For tougher spots, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Always air dry.
Troubleshooting
Shoe does not secure around the foot.
Ensure your foot is fully inserted. Press down firmly on the heel to engage the bi-stable hinge and tension band mechanism.
Difficulty removing the shoe hands-free.
Make sure you are pressing down on the designated kickstand area of the heel. Ensure there is no debris obstructing the heel mechanism.
Uneven wear on the heel or sole.
This could indicate incorrect removal technique. Practice ensuring even pressure is applied to the kickstand heel. Clean the sole regularly to prevent build-up that might affect wear patterns.
Mesh uppers appear dirty.
Wipe gently with a slightly damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Allow to air dry completely.

Care Instructions:
