FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The LIGHTSHIFT trainers are designed for everyday style and comfort, featuring LIGHTMOTION cushioning. They are not specifically engineered for high-performance running like marathon racing, which typically requires specialized footwear with advanced support and cushioning systems.

How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

For suede, use a dry suede brush to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner, testing it on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid getting suede overly wet.

What is the main benefit of the LIGHTMOTION midsole?

The LIGHTMOTION midsole provides ultra-light cushioning, designed to make movement feel effortless and reduce overall foot fatigue during daily wear.

Can I wear these trainers in the rain?

The trainers offer some protection, but they are not waterproof. The textile and suede materials can absorb moisture. It is advisable to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain to keep your feet dry and maintain the shoe's condition.

What is the purpose of the Cold Cement construction?

Cold Cement construction is a method used to bond the outsole to the upper. It's known for its durability and ability to create a strong, long-lasting bond, contributing to the overall lifespan of the trainers.

How do I ensure the best fit?

The trainers feature a lace-up closure for a personalized fit. Ensure you select your correct UK size and adjust the laces to be snug but not uncomfortably tight. The engineered mesh and suede upper are designed to adapt to the foot's shape.

Troubleshooting

Laces do not stay tied

Ensure laces are tied tightly using a standard shoelace knot. Consider double-knotting if slippage persists.

Foot feels uncomfortable after prolonged wear

Check that the lacing is not too tight or too loose. Ensure the correct size has been selected, as a snug fit is intended but should not cause pain.

Dirt on suede areas

Use a dry suede brush to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully.

Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces

While the rubber outsole provides traction, performance on very wet surfaces can be reduced. Ensure the outsole is clean and free of debris. Use caution in extremely wet conditions.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Designed for adult males, these trainers are compatible with casual and athletic-inspired attire.

Care:

  • General Cleaning: Wipe the upper with a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For suede areas, use a specialized suede brush to clean gently.

  • Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  • Suede Care: Use a suede protector spray to help maintain the material's appearance and resistance to stains.
