Product Information
Full details
The Nike Cosmic Runners are designed for active kids who need a versatile trainer capable of handling both athletic play and daily school life. These shoes prioritize comfort through signature springy foam cushioning and a breathable mesh upper that keeps feet cool during high-energy activities. While the durable outsole provides excellent stability on various surfaces, parents should note that the lightweight design is optimized primarily for casual and moderate activity rather than intensive competitive sports training.

FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is not recommended to machine wash Nike Cosmic Runners. Hand cleaning is safer for the materials and ensures the foam and adhesive remain intact.
Can these be used for long-distance running?
While these provide excellent comfort for play and daily activity, they are best suited for moderate exercise rather than long-distance athletic training.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard sizing. It is recommended to leave a small amount of space in the toe box for growth and comfort.
Are the insoles removable?
The insoles in this model are generally fixed to ensure they remain stable during active use.
Can they be worn in the rain?
The mesh upper is porous for breathability, meaning they are not waterproof and may let in water during heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
The mesh upper has picked up dirt or dust.
Allow the mud to dry completely before brushing it off with a soft, dry brush, then spot-clean with a damp cloth.
The shoes feel less 'bouncy' after extended wear.
This is often due to the compression of the foam over time. Allow the shoes 24 hours of rest between wears to let the foam recover its shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Cosmic Runners last as long as possible, proper care is essential. Since they feature a mesh upper, avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes during cleaning, as these can damage the synthetic fibers.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush or a cloth dampened with mild soap and water to spot-clean the mesh and midsole.
- Drying: Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid placing them near direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as high heat can warp the foam cushioning.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the vibrant colors from fading over time.
- Fit: Ensure the child is wearing appropriate socks for their activity level, as this will prevent friction and improve the internal fit of the trainer.
