FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running or gym workouts?
The Nike P-6000 Trainers are primarily designed for everyday wear and casual comfort. While they offer good support for walking, they are not specialized running or high-intensity workout shoes. For dedicated athletic performance, we recommend footwear specifically designed for those activities.
How do I clean the white mesh and keep it white?
For white mesh, use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) with a mixture of mild soap and water or a specialized shoe cleaner. Gently scrub the mesh in small circular motions. Immediately wipe away excess suds with a clean, damp cloth and let them air dry away from direct sunlight. Regular light cleaning is more effective than infrequent deep cleaning.
Do these trainers fit true to size?
Generally, Nike P-6000 Trainers are reported to fit true to size. This specific variant is a UK 8.5. However, individual foot shapes vary. If you're unsure, or between sizes, consider trying them on or referring to a detailed Nike size chart.
Are the Nike P-6000 Trainers waterproof?
No, the Nike P-6000 Trainers feature a breathable mesh upper, which is not waterproof. They are designed for ventilation and comfort in dry conditions. Exposure to heavy rain or wet environments may result in wet feet.
What is the best way to store these trainers when not in use?
Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation and yellowing of white elements. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape, and ensuring they are clean and dry before storage will prevent odors and mildew.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have the correct size. If new, wear them for short periods (1-2 hours) over a few days to break them in. The materials should soften and conform to your foot. Check your socks; very thick socks can alter the fit.
Shoes get dirty quickly, especially the white color.
Regular spot cleaning is key. Wipe down the mesh and overlays after each wear with a damp cloth to prevent dirt from setting in. For tougher stains, use a mild shoe cleaner and a soft brush as detailed in the care instructions.
Squeaking sound when walking.
Often, squeaking comes from the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a little baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, and then replacing the insole. If the squeak persists, check if it's the sole's material on a specific surface.
Unpleasant odor developing inside the shoes.
Ensure shoes are fully air-dried after wear, especially if worn without socks or during warmer weather. Use shoe deodorizers, baking soda sachets, or cedar shoe trees to absorb moisture and odors. Replace insoles if the odor persists and cannot be removed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup
Your Nike P-6000 Trainers require no special setup. Simply unbox, loosen the laces, insert your foot, and tie them to your preferred comfort level. It is recommended to wear them for short periods initially to 'break them in' and allow the materials to conform to your foot shape.
Compatibility
- Sizing: These trainers are generally considered true to size (UK 8.5 for this variant). If you are between sizes, consider trying them on or consulting a size guide.
- Footwear: Best suited for everyday casual socks. Avoid overly thick socks that might reduce breathability or alter the fit.
- Outfit Pairing: Compatible with a wide range of casual attire, including jeans, chinos, shorts, tracksuits, and various athleisure wear.
Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your P-6000 Trainers:
- Spot Cleaning: For minor dirt and scuffs, use a soft brush or cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Gently scrub the affected area.
- Mesh Upper: For the breathable mesh, use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and a small amount of mild detergent. Scrub gently in small circles.
- Overlays: The horizontal and vertical overlays can be wiped clean with a damp cloth.
- Laces: Remove laces and hand wash them separately with soap and water, then air dry.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or using artificial heat sources (like radiators or tumble dryers) as this can damage materials and adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Deep Cleaning (Infrequent): For more thorough cleaning, you can hand wash the entire shoe using a gentle shoe cleaner solution. Rinse thoroughly and air dry. Do not machine wash, as this can damage the shoe's structure and materials.
