FAQs

No, the polyester upper is breathable but not waterproof. They are best suited for dry conditions.
How should I store them?

Can I wash these in the machine?

Troubleshooting
Shoes are feeling tight
Check if the laces are overtightened or if the child has outgrown the current size; consider moving to a thinner sock.
Surface dirt on the polyester mesh
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dry dirt before wiping with a damp cloth.
Reduced cushioning feel
Check the interior for debris or worn-out insoles; if the foam has lost its spring, it may be time for a replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The Nike Downshifter 13 is ready to wear immediately out of the box. To ensure the best fit, ensure the child is wearing appropriate sports socks. For maintenance, spot clean the exterior with a soft brush or a damp cloth using mild soap. Avoid putting these trainers in the washing machine or dryer, as high heat can damage the adhesive and the structural integrity of the cushioning foam. Air dry them in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight to prevent fading or material stiffening.
