Full details

FAQs
Are the Nike Killshot 2 Leather trainers true to size?
Most users find the Nike Killshot 2 Leather trainers to fit true to size. However, if you are between sizes or have wider feet, consider sizing up for a more comfortable fit.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not fully waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve the materials.
How do I clean the gum sole?
The gum sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. For scuffs, a magic eraser or a specialized sole cleaner can be used carefully.
What is the main material of the shoe?
The main upper material is real leather, with suede accents on the Swoosh and potentially other parts of the shoe. The sole is made from pure rubber.
Are these shoes suitable for sports or running?
No, these trainers are designed for casual wear and light activities. They do not provide the specialized support or cushioning required for running or athletic sports.
What does the 'Sail Gum' colorway mean?
'Sail' refers to an off-white or cream color, while 'Gum' refers to the characteristic translucent brown color of the rubber sole.
Where is the Nike logo located on this shoe?
The Nike logo typically appears on the tongue, the heel notch, and as a prominent Swoosh on the quarter panel of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing excessively
This is normal for genuine leather over time. To minimize, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use.
Gum sole showing scuffs or discoloration
Use a soft cloth with mild soap and water to gently clean the sole. For stubborn scuffs, a magic eraser or specialized sole cleaner may be used cautiously, testing on a small area first.
Suede material looking worn or dirty
Gently brush the suede with a suede brush to restore its texture. For stains, use a suede cleaner as directed, and avoid getting the suede wet.
Discomfort during initial wear
Leather shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing wear time as they mold to your feet.

Care Instructions:

- Suede Accents: For the suede parts (like the Swoosh), use a suede brush to remove dirt and maintain texture. Avoid excessive water.
- Rubber Sole: Clean the gum sole with a damp cloth. For scuffs, a magic eraser or specialized sole cleaner can be effective, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box, to maintain their shape and prevent dust buildup.
