How do I clean the Nike Zoom Vomero 5 Anthracite?
Clean the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. For the midsole and outsole, use a soft brush with a mild soap and water solution. Always air dry.
Is this shoe suitable for wide feet?
The standard fit is designed for average foot widths. While the lacing system allows for some adjustment, individuals with significantly wide feet might find them snug. It's recommended to try them on if possible.
What does 'Anthracite' refer to in the shoe's name?
'Anthracite' refers to the shoe's colorway, which is a dark, monochromatic grey with darker shade overlays.
What is the outsole made of and what is its function?

Can these shoes be used for professional athletic training?
While they offer good cushioning and support for general athletic activities, they are primarily positioned as lifestyle and performance-oriented trainers. For specialized professional training, sport-specific footwear might be more appropriate.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not pulled too tight. If the shoe is consistently too small, consider a larger size.
Reduced cushioning effectiveness
The cushioning may feel less responsive over time with heavy use. Ensure the shoe is broken in properly. For persistent issues, consider replacing the shoes after significant wear.
Squeaking noise during movement
This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between shoe layers. Ensure the shoes are completely dry. If the noise persists, it might be an internal structural issue.
Discoloration of the grey upper
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions. Stubborn stains may require specialized shoe cleaners for fabric.
