FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?

Yes, the responsive cushioning is designed to provide comfort and joint protection during extended training sessions.

Can I use these for gym workouts?

While designed primarily for running, their stability and grip make them suitable for general training and treadmill use.

How do I ensure I have the right size?

We recommend measuring your feet while standing and checking against our size guide, as running shoes should ideally have a small amount of extra room in the toe box.

Are these machine washable?

No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity and cushioning properties of the trainers.

Do these shoes offer arch support?

The internal construction provides a supportive fit suitable for standard arches, though specific orthopedic needs may require additional insoles.

Troubleshooting

Feeling tightness around the midfoot

Adjust the lace tension starting from the bottom eyelets to allow for more volume in the forefoot.

Accumulation of debris in the tread

Use a soft-bristle brush to gently remove stones or compacted dirt from the outsole after outdoor runs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Nike Downshifter 14 trainers last through your training cycles, follow these maintenance tips:

  1. Sizing: These shoes are true to size for most adults, but always trial them with your preferred running socks to ensure proper fit.
  2. Cleaning: Wipe away dirt with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes or using a washing machine, as high heat and heavy agitation can damage the cushioning materials.
  3. Drying: Air dry only in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the materials.
  4. Storage: Keep them in a cool, dry place to prevent the breakdown of midsole foams.
