How do I protect these from creases?
You don't. Just embrace "playground busted" status.

Flexin
Honestly I've actually considered applying for my local Clearance store strictly for a Swoosh account. Only working part time right now while I'm studying for PT. The extra Nike hours + Swoosh pricing and the shoes practically pay for themselves.
Had to flex a lil lol. But ya i love the perks of family workin at nike.

@PWGuy
avoid the mesh, i would also avoid the tongue
actually, i spray the proofer onto a car wax sponge first,
View media item 2116966
then apply to the shoe with da sponge - that way you only get the areas you want
walmart has these sponges in da car section on da cheap
also - i use this water proofer...
View media item 2116968
also cheap & at walmart!

So I tried the baby powder method to stop the squeaking that is coming from the front of the shoe. It worked temporarily, but now the squeak has returned. I bought a 9.5 in these, but my 3's and 4's are both size 9. I never experienced any squeaking in the 3's or 4's.
Could the .5 size up be causing the squeaking I am experiencing in these 5's?

LMAO ABSOLUTELY NOT.. SOMEONE OUT THERE BOUGHT A 9.5 IN THEIR 3'S, 4'S, ANNND 5'S .. ITS NOT GOING TO SOMEHOW EQUATE TO SQUEAKING.. THIS IS ACTUALLY PRETTY COMMON BACK WHEN. I THINK THE X'S HAD THIS ISSUE A LOT AND SOME USED BABY POWDER BACK THEN.. I SAY IT IS WHAT IT IS LEAVE IT BE.. YOU JUST HAVE A SQUEAKY PAIR
KIND OF ODD THAT IT HAPPENED SO FAST THO.. USUALLY TAKES SOME TIME

Maybe I didn't explain it well enough, or you misunderstood.
What i meant was, perhaps the extra length of the insole isn't being pressed down by my toes, and maybe causing it? I understand that a shoe size on its own won't equate to squeaking, but maybe a shoe that was too large for someone might be the culprit? Like I said, my size 9 3s and 4s never squeaked, but my size 9.5 5's are squeaking. So is it because the 3's and 4's fit me better, and don't have any excess room in them, or is it because there is a bit of excess room in the 5 because they don't fit me quite as snug as the 3's and 4's do.

Did they fit your foot good? Or did you have a bit of excess room in the toe area?

TO ANSWER YOU STRAIGHT UP.. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY THEY ARE SQUEAKING AND THE OTHERS ARENT LOL. BUT I DONT BELIEVE THAT A SLIGHTLY BIGGER SIZING EQUATES TO SQUEAKING. I HAVE PLENTY OF SHOES THAT FIT SLIGHTLY DIFFERENTLY BC THEY ARE VERY DIFFERENT FROM EACH OTHER.. FOAMS, AIR MAX, JORDANS, ETC.. ALMOST NONE SQUEAK THAT I CAN THINK OF BUT IVE HAD IT HAPPEN BEFORE.
I HAVE 07 V'S, 06 GRAPES, 06 ( I THINK) BLACK TONGUE FIRE REDS, 09 TB III'S, CDP BC III'S.... NONE OF THEM SQUEAK ALL ARE 10.5 EXCEPT THE TB'S.. IDK MAN.. GOOD LUCK THO

No sizing wouldn't effect that. The squeaking could be related to the air unit and material inside rubbing against each other. My CDP Shadow 10's would squeak back in the day but I sprayed some WD40 in the bottoms, and they have been quiet ever since

Not really. I've never done this but I would imagine putting the carton inserts back in can ruin the fields and possibly even widen and loosen up the shoe. What you can do is remove the fields and put the carton in. They're not permanent. The adhesive is strong enough to hold but they're easy to remove. When I didn't have enough fields I would pull them from one shoe and put them in another I was going to wear.
