Product Information
Full details
The Nike Free Ride trainers are specifically engineered for active kids who need a lightweight, flexible shoe that supports natural foot development. Featuring a signature bootie-like construction and an ultra-flexible sole, these trainers provide exceptional comfort for all-day play and movement. While the slip-on design is highly convenient for quick changes, users should note that the low-cut collar design is optimized for agility rather than intense ankle-support activities.

FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
We recommend spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Machine washing may damage the structural integrity of the flexible sole.
Does the shoe provide good arch support?
The Nike Free Ride is designed to promote natural foot movement and has been accepted by the APMA for its supportive and flexible construction.
Can the laces be replaced?
Yes, the classic lacing system can be adjusted or replaced if they become worn.
Is this shoe suitable for wide feet?
The bootie-like design is designed to hug the foot. Those with very wide feet may find it snug; we recommend trying a half-size up if needed.
What age group is this shoe for?
This model is specifically designed for older children and youth sizes.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty sliding the foot into the shoe
Ensure the laces are fully loosened before pulling on the heel tab; the bootie construction requires a slightly wider entry.
Insole sliding during play
Remove the insole, clean any debris from the footbed, and ensure it is pressed firmly back into place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, ensure your child's foot is measured regularly, as growth can affect the performance of the bootie-style fit. When putting these on, utilize the tongue and heel pull tabs to prevent stretching the fabric collar over time. For care, keep the trainers clean by wiping the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can compromise the flexible adhesives in the sole unit. Air dry at room temperature away from direct sunlight.
