FAQs
What is Nike Shox technology?
Nike Shox technology combines resilient, flexible columns with moderator plates. This system is designed to absorb impact and compress, then regain its shape, providing outstanding cushioning.

How do I clean the Shox columns?
Gently wipe the Shox columns with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the material.
What is the main benefit of the TPU cage?
The full TPU cage, along with moulded overlays in the midfoot, provides structural support and helps to ensure a snug, secure fit for the wearer.
How durable is the outsole?
The non-marking, solid rubber outsole features a modified Waffle pattern, designed to provide great traction and durability for everyday use.
What material is the upper made of?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too firm initially.
The Nike Shox technology may require a break-in period. Wear the shoes for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. The columns will adapt to your foot and gait.
Dirt trapped in Shox columns.
Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to carefully clean around the Shox columns. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth with a mild soap solution can be used gently.
Traction seems reduced on certain surfaces.
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean. Dirt or debris can accumulate and reduce grip. Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth.
Discomfort in the midfoot.
Check if the midfoot overlays are providing a snug but not overly tight fit. Ensure the laces are adjusted appropriately for your foot's arch.
