Product Information
Full details
The Nike Air Kukini SE is designed for active adults who prioritize a unique blend of comfort and athletic functionality. This trainer features a distinctive aesthetic with a robust midfoot cage that provides essential stability during movement, alongside quick-drying, neoprene-like fabric that conforms to your foot. While the shoe offers excellent cushioning and performance for athletic activities, the slip-on style means it may lack the customizable lockdown of traditional lace-up trainers for high-intensity lateral sports.

FAQs
Are the Nike Air Kukini trainers waterproof?
No, they are made with a quick-drying neoprene-like fabric, but they are not fully waterproof.
Can I use these for running?
They are designed for general athletic use and lifestyle; they lack the specific technical features required for long-distance running.
How do I determine my size?
The Nike Air Kukini SE typically fits true to size. We recommend ordering the size you usually wear in Nike athletic shoes.
Does the midfoot cage restrict movement?
The cage is designed to provide stability while remaining flexible enough for natural foot movement during walking and light exercise.
How should I clean the white sections of the outsole?
A soft toothbrush with a mild soap and water solution is generally effective for removing dirt from the rubber outsole.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty getting the shoe on
Ensure you are using the pull tab at the heel to guide your foot in, as the neoprene material is designed to be snug for support.
Foot slipping inside the shoe
The fit may be too large; consider wearing slightly thicker athletic socks to improve the internal volume and contact.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As a slip-on trainer, the setup is straightforward: ensure the heel is fully pulled up for a secure fit. These trainers are true to size for most adult users.
To keep your Air Kukini SE in top condition:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the shoe in water to protect the structural integrity of the cage and the Air unit.
- Drying: Air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the neoprene or rubber components.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent material degradation or color fading.
