FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?

How do I ensure the right fit?

What is the primary material used?
The upper of the Nike Shox R4 is constructed from durable polyester, which balances flexibility with structure.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash your trainers as it can damage the structural integrity and the aesthetic finish; hand cleaning is preferred.
What surfaces are these best for?
The rubber outsole with textured grip is designed for everyday urban environments, including pavement, asphalt, and gym floors.
Does the padded tongue offer extra support?
Yes, the padded tongue and cuff are specifically designed to reduce pressure from the laces and provide a comfortable, secure lockdown around the ankle.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on the white surface
Use a soft microfiber cloth with a small amount of mild detergent and water to gently wipe the area clean.
Laces becoming loose during the day
Ensure the laces are threaded properly through the top eyelets and consider a double knot if additional security is needed.
Squeaking sound from the midsole
Ensure the area between the outsole and midsole is free of debris or small stones that may have become lodged during use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Shox R4 trainers stay in pristine condition, regular maintenance is recommended. Since these shoes feature a White/Silver color scheme, it is best to wipe them down with a soft, damp cloth after use to prevent dirt from setting into the fabric. For deeper cleans, use a mild soap and cold water solution, avoiding harsh brushes that might damage the polyester finish. Ensure they are air-dried away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping. Because of the lace-up design, ensure you adjust the tension at the midfoot to match your preferred level of lockdown without over-tightening.
