FAQs

How do I break in the leather on my Shox Ride 2 trainers?

The premium leather is designed to soften and mold to your foot over time with regular wear. Start with shorter durations of wear and gradually increase as they become more comfortable.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While the Shox cushioning offers impact absorption, these trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. They are not optimized for high-impact running activities.

How should I clean the Shox columns?

Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to gently clean the Shox columns. Avoid using high-pressure water or harsh cleaning agents.

What is the main difference between Shox Ride 2 and other Shox models?

The Shox Ride 2 often features updated aesthetic designs and material combinations compared to earlier Shox models, while retaining the core Shox cushioning technology.

Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended for leather footwear as it can damage the material and the internal structure of the shoe.

Do these trainers come in other colours?

While this guide focuses on the Grey/Orange variant, Nike often releases popular models in a range of colourways. Please check retailer listings for other available options.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears stiff or dry

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner specifically designed for athletic footwear to moisturize the material. Test on an inconspicuous area first.

Slight squeaking noise from Shox columns

This can sometimes occur due to newness or moisture. Try flexing the shoe gently or ensuring the sole is completely dry. If persistent, consult a specialist.

Orange colour bleeding onto grey areas

This may happen in very wet conditions. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before storing and avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. Use a color-protecting spray if concerned.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Unique and futuristic design that makes a statement.
  • Premium leather material that enhances comfort and develops character over time.
  • Durable construction suitable for everyday wear.
  • Combines style with Nike's signature Shox cushioning technology.

Cons

  • Leather may require specific care to prevent damage or premature aging.
  • The unique aesthetic might not appeal to all style preferences.
  • Potentially heavier than trainers made with synthetic materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and fit.

Compatibility: Designed for adult males, these trainers are compatible with standard casual wear. They are best suited for everyday activities rather than high-impact sports.

Care Instructions:

  • Leather Care: Clean the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the leather.
  • Drying: If the trainers become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can cause the leather to crack or stiffen.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the colour and material integrity. Using a shoe tree can help maintain the shape.
  • Sole Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove dirt from the Shox columns and sole.
