FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The Nike Book 2 generally follows standard athletic sizing; however, since they are performance trainers, they are designed to fit snugly. If you prefer a looser fit, consider checking your measurements against the size guide.
Can these be worn for running?
While they are comfortable, these are specifically engineered as basketball trainers. They provide the lateral support needed for basketball, but may not offer the same gait-cycle benefits as dedicated long-distance running shoes.
How should I clean the white sections?
Use a soft cloth dampened with water and a tiny amount of mild detergent. Gently wipe the affected area and allow to air dry away from heat sources.
Are these suitable for outdoor courts?
Yes, the materials are durable enough for outdoor use, but be aware that harsh asphalt may wear down the tread faster than indoor gym floors.
What is the primary material used?
The Nike Book 2 uses high-performance synthetic textiles and reinforced overlays designed for basketball durability.
Troubleshooting
Feeling tightness or pinching during wear
Loosen the laces to allow for more volume and re-tie once the foot is fully seated in the heel counter.
Traction loss on dusty court surfaces
Wipe the outsoles with a damp cloth or a dedicated court grip pad to remove accumulated debris.
Visible surface scuffs
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning wipe or a gentle eraser to buff out surface-level scuffs on the white upper.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the lifespan of your Nike Book 2 trainers, begin by ensuring the laces are adjusted to provide a snug, secure fit that prevents slippage during athletic activity. If using these for competitive games, allow for a brief break-in period to let the materials mold to your foot shape. Regarding care, avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the specialized materials. Instead, wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth using mild soap to remove dust or scuff marks. Keep the shoes in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight when not in use to maintain the integrity of the adhesive and materials.
