What does Nike offer in running and fitness on Foot-Store?
Nike offers a selection of running shoes, technical clothing, and accessories for running and gym training on Foot-Store. The catalog caters to both the needs of regular runners and those involved in fitness, with products designed for cushioning, breathability, or support depending on the activity.
How to choose your Nike running shoe?
The choice of a Nike running shoe mainly depends on the distance covered and the type of terrain. A pair meant for daily jogging prioritizes cushioning and comfort over time, while a lighter model is more suitable for speed sessions or higher paces. The runner's gait type and weight also influence the choice of sole and drop.
What fitness clothing and accessories Nike can you find here?
Alongside the shoes, the selection includes technical clothing (t-shirts, shorts, leggings, jackets) designed to wick away sweat during workouts, as well as useful training accessories like socks or bags. These items can be worn for both running and gym sessions.

Where to find good deals on Nike products?
Prices and discounts change regularly, so the promotional pages of the site centralise the best opportunities at the moment. The offers for Black Friday often feature the most significant price reductions of the year, followed by the offers for the end-of-year holidays. Then come the winter sales, followed by the French Days in spring. Outside these periods, the Clearance page and the Good Deals section help you spot discounts on items at the end of their collection.

Finally, the New Arrivals page allows you to keep track of current collections coming in.
Running or fitness shoes Nike: how to tell them apart?
A shoe designed for running and a shoe made for the gym do not meet the same needs: the former prioritises cushioning for repeated impacts on straight paths, while the latter must provide stability for multidirectional movements, weight lifting, or bodyweight exercises. It's better to choose your model based on the main activity rather than aiming for one model to do everything.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size to choose for a Nike running shoe?
Nike sizes generally follow standard conversions, but some models may fit smaller or larger depending on their construction. It's advisable to check the size guide available on the product page before ordering, especially if you're changing from your usual pair.
Can you use running shoes for indoor football?
A running shoe is not suitable for indoor football as it lacks lateral stability and its grip is not designed for quick directional changes. For this use, it’s better to opt for a dedicated futsal shoe.
What is the difference between running clothing and fitness clothing?
Running clothing often favours a fitted cut and lightweight material to reduce friction over the duration of a run. Fitness clothing can be more versatile, allowing more freedom of movement for floor exercises or weight lifting.
Are Nike shoes suitable for trail running?
Standard running shoes are not always suitable for trail running, which requires a grippier sole and reinforced protection against stones and roots. It’s best to check the product page to see if the model is specifically designed for off-road use.
How to maintain running shoes for longer durability?
It’s recommended to let shoes air dry after intense use, avoiding placing them near a heat source, and to remove insoles to speed up drying. Avoiding the washing machine also preserves the cushioning structure and the fit of the upper.
