FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
While the Shox technology provides great cushioning, these are primarily designed for training and lifestyle use rather than long-distance endurance running.
How do I clean the metallic silver finish?
Use a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid abrasive scrubbers that could strip the metallic sheen or leave scratches.
Do I need to size up for these trainers?
The fit is true to standard Nike sizing for women. If you prefer extra room for thicker socks, consider a half-size increase.
What surfaces are these best for?
They are designed for indoor gym floors, paved paths, and general road use.
How long will the Shox technology last?
With regular use, the structural integrity of the Shox columns is engineered to last the typical lifespan of an athletic trainer, assuming normal wear and proper care.
Troubleshooting
Feeling instability during initial wears
The Shox technology is inherently stable but requires the wearer to get used to the unique feel; ensure your laces are tightened securely to keep your heel locked into the cup.
Debris caught in the Shox columns
Gently use a soft-bristled brush or compressed air to dislodge any small stones or grit from the gaps between the pillars.
