FAQs
What makes the Nike Waffle One SE 'Hyper Royal' special?
This special edition features a unique transparent mesh upper, Hyper Royal blue accents, and a blend of heritage and futuristic design elements, offering a distinctive look compared to standard models.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While comfortable for walking and everyday activities due to their cushioning, they are not designed as specialized running shoes. For serious running, consider Nike's dedicated running lines.
How do I care for the transparent mesh material?
Gently wipe the mesh with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals to prevent damage or discoloration.
What is the fit like?
The shoe offers a snug fit with good support from overlays and a TPU heel clip. Consider your usual Nike sizing for the best fit.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The primary upper material is a transparent white mesh, complemented by synthetic overlays for support.
Can I wear these in wet conditions?
The rubber outsole provides good traction, but the mesh upper is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Avoid excessive exposure to water.
What is the main color of the shoe?
The main color scheme is Phantom (white) with significant Hyper Royal blue accents on the Swoosh, side panel, and heel.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise from shoes
This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers. Ensure shoes are completely dry. Applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.
Discoloration of transparent mesh
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause yellowing. Clean with a damp cloth as per care instructions.
Reduced cushioning over time
The foam midsole may compress with extensive use. Rotating footwear can help extend the life and effectiveness of the cushioning.
Traction feels reduced
Clean the waffle outsole lugs of any debris, dirt, or mud. Ensure the rubber has not worn down significantly from extensive use.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the transparent mesh and synthetic overlays with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
