FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
They are designed for everyday active wear and provide excellent cushioning for walking and light movement, but they are not specialized performance running shoes.
How do I determine the correct size?
Measure your child's foot in centimeters or inches and compare it to the Nike size chart, leaving enough room for natural toe movement.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as the agitation and heat can damage the mechanical cushioning system and the exterior materials.
What is the primary benefit of Shox technology?
The main benefit is superior impact protection and energy return provided by the mechanical columns in the sole.
Do these shoes provide arch support?
The structural design of the Shox TL provides a stable base that offers moderate support, though it is not a medical-grade orthopedic shoe.
Troubleshooting
Pillars making squeaking sounds
Ensure the area between the columns is free of trapped debris or small stones; wipe the column surfaces with a damp cloth.
Shoe feels stiff when new
This is normal for the Shox system; wear them for shorter periods initially to allow the materials to flex and break in.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Shox TL Trainers last, avoid submerging them in water or using harsh chemical cleaners. For regular care, wipe the upper surface with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. If the shoes get muddy, allow them to air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources, as extreme heat can damage the integrity of the Shox columns. When selecting a size, ensure there is roughly a thumb's width of space between the toe and the front of the shoe to allow for natural foot growth and comfortable movement.
