Own the city: Nike shoes
Nike is an athletic shoe brand with a difference. Having been on the scene since the 1960s, this classic trainer manufacturer with the famous Swoosh logo is well-versed in creating sell-out kicks and has earned its place amongst the most successful sportswear brands in the world. With varieties for men, women and kids, everyone is welcome at Nike and will almost certainly find a pair of trainers to fit their needs.
An iconic streetstyle essential
The first ever Nike shoe was released in 1972. Nicknamed the ‘Moon Shoe’, it was provided to athletes competing in the US Olympic trials. Since then, thousands of trainers have been released in a huge number of designs. One of the most popular styles ever is the Nike Air Max. Its retro-inspired design has been a footwear staple since its conception in 1987. Hot on its heels is another cult trainer: the Nike Air Force 1. This timeless classic was the first basketball shoe to offer Air in the sole and has since become a true street legend.
Crispy clean: How to keep your trainers fresh for longer
Whether you’ve been out on the sports pitch or walking in the countryside, dirty shoes are not unusual, but cleaning them the right way will help keep them looking their best. Although it might be tempting, try not to put them in the washing machine as the high temperatures could damage the delicate materials of the shoe. Instead, use a dry brush in small, circular motions followed by a damp cloth, not forgetting to let the trainer air dry fully before wearing it. Even if you have shoes with a more challenging mesh design, this method should still leave them sparkling clean.
Are Nike shoes good for running?
Nike is known for creating top-class running shoes suitable for everything from trail running to marathons. Many styles such as Nike React and Vaporfly have a special midsole to cushion the foot and create stability on long-distance runs. What’s more, their breathable Flyknit upper is ideal for cooling you down during the warmer months.
Are Nike shoes unisex?
Generally, no. Nike releases specific styles for men, women and kids. Women’s sizes tend to be narrower – particularly in the heel area – to perfectly adapt to the female foot.
Do Nike shoes run big or small?
Nike is notorious for running small. Most people tend to order a size larger than usual – maybe even one and a half sizes if your feet are particularly wide. But as there are so many Nike styles available, check the sizing of your particular model before you buy.
