FAQs
What activities are these shoes best for?
The Nike Renew Retaliation TR is ideal for various athletic training, including gym workouts, cross-training, short to moderate distance running, and functional fitness activities that require high durability, such as rope climbing.
How do I choose the correct size?
These shoes are listed in UK men's sizing. We recommend referring to Nike's official sizing chart if you are unsure of your size, or trying them on to ensure a comfortable and secure fit for athletic performance.
Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?
While comfortable, their design prioritizes performance and durability for athletic training. They can be worn casually, but their primary benefits in stability and robust construction shine during workouts rather than prolonged casual use.
How should I clean my Renew Retaliation TR shoes?
To clean, gently brush off loose dirt. Use a mild soap diluted in water with a soft cloth or brush to clean the surface. Rinse with a damp cloth and allow to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not machine wash or dry.
Do these shoes offer arch support?
The Renew Retaliation TR series is designed to provide balanced support and stability for various training movements. Specific arch support can vary by individual foot shape. If you require additional arch support, consider using athletic insoles.
What makes them durable for rope climbing?
The shoes feature a 'robust construction' and 'all-around durability', likely with reinforced areas on the upper and a hard-wearing outsole material that resists abrasion, making them specifically suitable for the demanding friction of rope ascents without premature wear.
What is 'Renew' cushioning?
Nike Renew refers to a type of soft, resilient foam cushioning designed to provide a comfortable yet responsive feel. In the Retaliation TR, it offers impact absorption and energy return suitable for varied training movements.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel uncomfortable or too tight/loose
Ensure you have the correct size. Try adjusting laces for a more secure or relaxed fit. Allow a break-in period for the material to adapt to your foot shape.
Laces come undone frequently during workouts
Try double-knotting your laces. Some athletes prefer specific lacing techniques (e.g., 'runner's knot') for a more secure fit during intense activity.
Reduced grip on certain training surfaces
Inspect the outsole for wear and tear, and ensure the tread is clean from dirt or debris, which can reduce traction. The shoe is designed for general training, and very specialized or extremely slick surfaces might require different footwear.
Shoes develop an odor after use
Allow shoes to air out completely after each use, removing insoles occasionally to dry separately. Consider using odor-absorbing inserts or sprays designed for athletic footwear.
Upper material showing signs of abrasion or wear prematurely
While highly durable, extreme friction from specific activities (e.g., aggressive rope climbing technique) can cause wear. Ensure proper form during activities to minimize excessive friction points. Clean and inspect regularly for small tears.

Care Instructions
Proper care helps maintain the shoe's condition and performance:
- Cleaning:
- Brush off loose dirt with a soft brush (e.g., an old toothbrush).
- Mix a small amount of mild soap (like dish soap) with warm water.
- Dip a soft cloth or sponge into the soapy water and gently wipe down the upper and sole. Avoid saturating the shoes.
- For stubborn stains, a shoe cleaner specifically designed for athletic footwear can be used.
- Wipe off any soap residue with a clean, damp cloth.
- Drying:
- Air Dry ONLY: Never put your shoes in a washing machine or dryer, as high heat can damage materials and adhesives.
- Stuff the shoes with paper towels or newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Replace paper as it gets damp.
- Allow them to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
- Storage:
- Store shoes in a cool, dry place when not in use.
- If shoes become wet during use, always allow them to air dry fully before storing to prevent odor and mildew.
