Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Nike Initiators, start by ensuring the laces are adjusted to your specific foot arch—the midfoot overlays work best when the laces are tightened snugly but not constricting. These trainers are compatible with standard athletic socks.
Care Instructions:
- Remove loose dirt after every run using a soft-bristled brush.
- If the shoes get wet, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the foam.
- Do not submerge them in a washing machine; clean with a mild soap solution and a damp cloth for best results.
- Replace the shoes after 300-500 miles of use to ensure the foam midsole maintains its integrity.
