Troubleshooting
Sizing feels off
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Compare with other Nike trainers you own. If still uncomfortable, consider professional fitting advice or consult sizing charts.
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace laces with a similar style or material. Consider thicker, more durable laces for extended wear.
Sole separation starting
For minor separation, a specialized shoe repair adhesive can be used. For significant separation, professional repair or replacement may be necessary.
Color transfer onto socks
This can sometimes occur with darker dyes. Ensure the shoes are fully dry before wear. Limit wear in very wet conditions. This issue may reduce over time with wear.
