FAQ
Nike makes track spikes for sprints, middle-distance races, distance races and select field events, such as jumping and pole vaulting. Each category has its own construction, including differences in cushioning, spike plate layout and upper structure. The event designation is a useful starting point when exploring the options.
Track spikes typically feature event-specific plates and streamlined uppers for track competition. Cross-country spikes generally have more substantial outsoles and uppers built for grass and dirt courses. Their cushioning, tread patterns and pin configurations can also differ.
Common materials include mesh or synthetic textile uppers, foam midsoles and molded spike plates. Some designs also feature synthetic overlays or internal structural elements. The exact material combination varies by event category and construction.
No. Track spikes can have replaceable pins or fixed pins integrated into the sole. Replaceable pins are threaded and typically removed with a spike wrench, while fixed pins remain part of the shoe. Check the product description to identify the pin setup.
Brush away loose dirt, then gently clean the uppers with a soft cloth, mild soap and water. Avoid soaking the shoes, and let them air-dry away from direct heat. For removable-pin designs, clear dirt from around the pins and follow the shoe's care instructions.
