Shoes are packaged and shipped quickly, usually within one business day.

“Nike refurbished takes like-new, gently worn, and slightly imperfect kicks, refurbishes them by hand” (by cleaning and sanitizing) and then is able to sell them again, just not labeled as new since they were previously purchased.

“Nike footwear that cannot be sold as brand new is eligible for Nike Refurbished. This could include a pair that a consumer returned or exchanged from a recent purchase because it wasn’t quite right for them, or shoes with a small imperfection. All product is then inspected, graded and refurbished by hand by a team of experts.”
