Product Information
Full details
The Nike Flex Runner 3 is designed for active kids who need a reliable, easy-to-wear shoe for daily movement and play. Its primary benefit is the slip-on design coupled with secure heel and tongue straps, which allow children to put them on independently while maintaining a snug fit. One caveat to consider is that the lightweight mesh construction, while excellent for breathability, may not provide the same level of rugged protection as heavy-duty hiking footwear.

FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is recommended to hand-clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Machine washing may damage the structural materials and elasticity.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The slip-on construction provides some flexibility, but the snug nature of the straps is designed for a standard fit.
Can I replace the straps if they break?
No, the straps are integrated into the construction of the shoe for security and cannot be replaced.
What is the best way to store these shoes?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the mesh and straps from drying out.
Is the sole non-marking?
Yes, the Flex Runner series is designed with gym-friendly, non-marking materials.
Troubleshooting
Straps feel too loose after prolonged wear
Check the elastic tension on the straps. If they have lost elasticity due to wear, ensure the tongue is centered correctly before pulling the straps taut.
Difficulty getting the shoe on
Ensure the heel tab is pulled fully outward and the tongue is pushed forward to maximize the entry opening before inserting the foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, have your child stand with their weight evenly distributed while measuring their feet. Because this is a slip-on shoe, the fit should feel snug but not restrictive. For care, keep the shoes away from heavy mud or abrasive surfaces to protect the mesh integrity. If the shoes become dirty, spot-clean them with a soft cloth, lukewarm water, and a mild detergent. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can compromise the adhesive and elastic straps.
