How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the Nike sizing chart for accurate measurements. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the provided chart. Consider trying them on if possible, as fit can vary.
What is the warranty period for Nike trainers?

Can the insoles be replaced with custom orthotics?
Yes, the insoles in the Nike Initiator trainers are usually removable, allowing space for custom orthotics if needed. Ensure your orthotics fit well within the shoe's volume.
Troubleshooting
Slight stiffness on first wear
This is common with new synthetic materials. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to break them in. Gentle stretching exercises for the shoes can also help.
Reduced grip over time
Clean the rubber outsole thoroughly with soap and water to remove embedded dirt and debris that may be affecting traction.
Discomfort or pressure points
Ensure you have the correct size. If the issue persists after break-in, consider using supportive insoles or checking the lacing for an improper fit.
Material scuffs or marks
Minor scuffs on synthetic leather can sometimes be buffed out with a soft cloth. For more significant marks, a white or clear shoe polish specific for synthetic materials might help.
