FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These are designed as lifestyle trainers for casual use. They are not recommended for long-distance running or high-impact athletic training.
How do I determine the right fit?
Nike trainers generally follow standard sizing. If you have worn Nike shoes before, start with your usual size, though keep in mind the deconstructed upper may fit slightly differently.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the suede overlays and degrade the adhesives used in the construction of the shoe.
Are these shoes unisex?
While the product is often marketed by gender, the sizing and design can be suitable for anyone, provided you confirm your specific foot measurement against the size guide.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed from a combination of breathable mesh for cooling and suede for added durability and style.
How often should I clean my trainers?
It is recommended to spot clean them as needed after heavy wear to prevent long-term staining on the mesh or suede components.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on suede overlays
Use a specialized suede brush or eraser to gently lift debris without matting the nap.
Creasing at the toe box
Use cedar shoe trees when not wearing to help maintain the shoe's shape and absorb excess moisture.
Slippery soles in wet conditions
While the waffle outsole is durable, exercise caution on polished wet surfaces as rubber can lose friction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Daybreak Type SE trainers last, keep them away from harsh cleaning chemicals. Clean the suede overlays using a soft brush specifically designed for suede to remove dirt without damaging the texture. For the mesh portions, use a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe away surface debris. Avoid machine washing or drying these shoes, as the heat and agitation can weaken the adhesives and ruin the suede. Always air dry them naturally away from direct sunlight or heat sources to prevent material warping.
