FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Nike SB Vertebrae is designed primarily for casual wear and daily activity. While stable, they lack the specific shock-absorption technology found in dedicated long-distance running shoes.
How do I determine the correct size?
These trainers follow standard UK sizing for adults. If you are between sizes, it is recommended to opt for the larger size to ensure comfort during movement.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are generally removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if preferred.
Are these machine washable?
No, it is highly recommended to hand-clean these trainers using a damp cloth to prevent damage to the structural adhesives.
What is the primary material used?
The Nike SB Vertebrae features durable performance-grade materials specifically chosen for longevity in skate and casual environments.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight across the midfoot
Loosen the laces starting from the bottom eyelets upward to redistribute pressure across the tongue.
Visible scuffs on the upper material
Use a soft-bristled brush or a damp microfiber cloth to gently buff out surface-level marks.
Laces coming untied frequently
Ensure you are using a double knot or a secure reef knot to keep the lacing system locked during activity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike SB Vertebrae trainers last as long as possible, follow these care and setup guidelines:
- Initial Fit: Ensure you test the fit with the socks you plan to wear most often, as this can affect how the lacing system secures your foot.
- Cleaning: Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals that might strip the material finish.
- Storage: Keep your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the materials.
- Air Drying: If they become wet, air dry them naturally at room temperature. Do not use heat sources like radiators, as this may warp the sole or damage the construction.
