FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the Nike V5 Runner is designed for comfort and movement, it is best suited for casual activities and everyday wear rather than high-intensity competitive track sports.
How do I clean the suede upper?
Do not put suede in the washing machine. Use a dry suede brush to clean dust and a suede eraser to target specific stains.
Does the V5 Runner fit true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK children's sizing, but it is always recommended to leave a small amount of room for growth or thicker socks.
Can these be worn in the rain?
It is not recommended. Suede can be damaged or permanently stained by water. If they do get wet, let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
Are these shoes gender-specific?
The Nike V5 Runner series is designed with versatile styling suitable for all children, regardless of gender.
Troubleshooting
Shoes are getting scuffed or marked
Use a specialized suede brush or an eraser designed for suede to gently remove surface marks without damaging the nap.
Inner lining feels damp after activity
Remove the insoles to air them out separately and stuff the shoes with dry paper towels to absorb residual moisture overnight.
Outsole loses traction
Check for debris wedged in the tread patterns and wipe the rubber surface with a damp cloth to restore grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike V5 Runners last, keep the following tips in mind. As these shoes feature suede, it is highly recommended to apply a suede-specific protective spray before their first use to guard against dirt and moisture. Compatibility-wise, these trainers feature standard sizing for kids (UK 4.5); if your child wears thick athletic socks, you may want to ensure the fit remains comfortable before extended wear. For cleaning, avoid submerging the shoes in water. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried mud and a specialized suede eraser for minor scuffs. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the materials from fading.
