FAQs

Can these shoes be washed in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash the Flex Runner 3 as it can damage the specialized mesh fabric and internal structure.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the breathable mesh construction is designed for airflow, not water resistance.

Do these shoes come with laces?

No, the Flex Runner 3 is a slip-on design that relies on elastic straps rather than traditional laces.

Is the insole removable?

The insole is integrated into the design for a lightweight fit and is not intended to be removed.

What is the best way to clean the sole?

A damp cloth with mild soap is usually sufficient to remove debris from the rubber outsole.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The flexible mesh upper offers some stretch, but fit may vary; if the child has wider feet, consider checking the fit against a standard size guide.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty getting the shoe on

Ensure the heel tab is pulled fully back and the tongue is pulled forward to create the widest opening for the foot.

Surface dirt on the mesh

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dry dirt before using a damp cloth; avoid scrubbing aggressively to prevent fraying the mesh fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longest life for your Nike Flex Runner 3 sneakers, avoid machine washing, which can degrade the mesh material and elastic components. Instead, wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth and a mild detergent. Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources to prevent the materials from warping. When selecting sizes, ensure you measure the child's foot with a standard brannock device or sizing chart, as these are designed as slip-ons and fit should be snug but comfortable without pinching.
