Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Nike Vomero 18 is ready to run straight out of the box. Ensure the laces are adjusted for a snug yet comfortable fit, not overly tight. The secure heel counter and plush collar should cradle your foot without excessive pressure.
Compatibility: These trainers are designed primarily for road running. They are compatible with most running surfaces, including pavement, sidewalks, and hard-packed trails. They are not designed for technical trail running or intense athletic competitions requiring extreme agility.
Care:
- Cleaning: After runs, use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove loose dirt and debris from the upper and outsole. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap with cool water and a soft brush. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials.
- Drying: Always air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving them in hot cars or damp environments.
- Rotation: For maximum longevity, consider rotating your Vomero 18s with another pair of running shoes to allow them to fully dry and recover between runs.
