FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the Nike Downshifter 13 is made from a breathable mesh that is not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in wet conditions.

Are these suitable for long-distance running?

They are ideal for beginners and casual runners, but for professional long-distance marathons, you might prefer shoes with more specialized cushioning.

How should I clean my trainers?

Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for spot cleaning. Never put them in the dryer.

Do these shoes come in a wide fit?

The Downshifter 13 features a regular fit. It is recommended to try them on to ensure they align with your specific foot width.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if needed.

What is the best surface for these trainers?

These shoes are best suited for paved roads, sidewalks, and gym surfaces like treadmills or hardwood floors.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on the mesh upper

Gently brush the area with a soft-bristle brush while dry, then dab with a damp cloth if necessary.

Foot slipping inside the shoe

Re-lace the sneakers using a runner's loop at the top eyelet to tighten the lockdown across the midfoot.

Material feels damp after outdoor use

Remove the insoles, stuff the interior with newspaper to absorb moisture, and let them air dry in a well-ventilated room.

Pros and Cons

  • Excellent range of motion due to the low-cut design

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Nike Downshifter 13 trainers, proper care is essential. Since the upper is made of mesh, avoid machine washing or heavy scrubbing, as this can degrade the fibers. Instead, spot clean any dirt using a soft brush or a slightly dampened cloth with mild detergent. Always air dry your sneakers in a shaded, well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the rubber outsole or shrink the materials. When storing, keep them in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup inside the shoe.
