FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The Vomero 18 offers a stable, cushioned platform that provides support for various arch types, though specific orthotic needs should be assessed by a professional.
Can I use these for marathon training?
Yes, their durable cushioning makes them an excellent choice for high-mileage training blocks, including long runs.
What is the weight difference between sizes?
While exact weight varies by size, the Vomero 18 is designed to remain lightweight despite its maximalist cushion stack.
How do I know if the fit is correct?
You should have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during exercise.
Are the laces replaceable?
Yes, you can swap the provided laces for any standard athletic lace length if you prefer a different type or color.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping or heel lift
Ensure the laces are tightened using the top eyelet (runner's loop) to secure the heel into the plush collar.
Midsole foam losing its springiness
Foam compression is a natural result of high mileage; ensure the shoes have at least 24 hours of rest between long runs to allow the cushioning cells to decompress.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Nike Vomero 18 trainers, focus on proper fit and maintenance. Ensure you choose the correct UK size, as the plush lining is designed for a snug, secure wrap around the foot. For cleaning, remove surface dirt with a soft brush and use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid putting these trainers in a washing machine, as high heat and heavy agitation can damage the foam properties and adhesive bonds. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to preserve the shape and performance of the dual-foam midsole.
