FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking?
Yes, they provide excellent support and durability for daily wear, though they are purpose-built for the demands of skating.
How do I find my size?
The Nike SB Vertebrae is available in standard UK adult sizing. Refer to the specific variant titles for availability in sizes 5 through 13.
Can these be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as it can damage the structural integrity and materials. Stick to hand cleaning with a damp cloth.
Are the materials waterproof?
These shoes are not advertised as waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain or puddles to maintain the condition of the materials.
Is the sole replaceable?
No, the sole is integrated into the design. If the tread wears down significantly, it is time to replace the footwear to maintain proper grip.
Troubleshooting
The shoes feel too tight initially
The structural design requires a break-in period; wear them for shorter sessions initially to allow the materials to conform to your feet.
Dirt buildup on the outsole
Use a stiff brush to clear debris from the tread pattern to maintain optimal grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the lifespan of your Nike SB Vertebrae trainers, ensure you choose the correct UK sizing, which ranges from 5 to 13 depending on the specific variant. When cleaning, avoid harsh chemicals that might degrade the specialized exterior materials. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt or debris from the sole and upper. For deeper cleaning, spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, then allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, which can damage the bonding agents and materials.
