Full details
These FitFlop RETRO-Q trainers are designed for adult females seeking a blend of retro aesthetics and modern comfort. Their key benefit lies in the iQushion™ technology, providing responsive support for all-day wear. A potential caveat is the specialized nature of the iQushion™ sole, which may require a brief adjustment period. The trainers feature a lightweight nylon and suede construction, inspired by 80s designs, offering a flexible and natural feel, with Scotchgard™ protection for everyday durability.

FAQs
What makes the iQushion™ technology special?
iQushion™ technology features ergonomically engineered midsoles with advanced cushioning that provides responsive support, helping to optimize body alignment and natural movement for enhanced comfort.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The trainers feature Scotchgard™ protection, which offers resistance to stains and water, making them suitable for light moisture. However, they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged or exposed to heavy rain for extended periods.
How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?
Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, a specialized suede cleaner or a damp cloth with a tiny amount of mild soap can be used carefully. Always let suede air dry away from heat.
Can these trainers be worn for exercise?
These trainers are designed for everyday comfort and casual wear. While they offer good support for walking, they are not intended for high-impact athletic activities like running or gym workouts.
What is the material of the upper?
The upper is a combination of lightweight nylon and suede, providing a mix of durability, flexibility, and textural contrast.
How do I find the right size?
The product information lists the size as UK 5.5. It is recommended to consult FitFlop's general sizing guide for the most accurate fit, as sizing can vary between models and brands.
Troubleshooting
Initial stiffness or discomfort
The iQushion™ sole may require a break-in period. Wear the trainers for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time to allow them to mold to your feet.
Suede appearing dull or stained
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner or a slightly damp cloth with minimal soap, blotting gently. Always allow to air dry.
Reduced grip on surfaces
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from mud, dirt, or debris. Check for excessive wear on the sole pattern, which might indicate the need for replacement.
