FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

These trainers are designed for everyday wear and casual comfort, not for high-impact athletic activities like running. The Super flex tech offers flexibility but lacks the specialized support needed for running.

How do I know if the UK 5 size will fit?

It's recommended to check Blowfish Malibu's general sizing chart or compare with a pair of shoes you already own that fit well. Foot width can also influence fit, and these are designed with a standard width.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the trainers. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.

What does 'VEGAN fabric' mean for these trainers?

It means that the fabric used in the upper is made without any animal-derived products, aligning with vegan material standards.

How durable is the faux-leather material?

The faux-leather is designed for durability in everyday use. Proper care, as outlined in the care instructions, will help maintain its appearance and longevity.

Do the stretch laces provide a secure fit?

The stretch laces offer a snug and secure fit for casual wear. They provide flexibility and ease of entry, but for activities requiring very tight lacing, they might offer less adjustability than traditional laces.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty slipping foot into the trainer

Ensure the stretch laces are loosened as much as possible. Gently pull the heel tab to assist in sliding your foot in.

Slight stiffness during first wear

Wear the trainers around the house for short periods to allow them to mold to your feet. The Super flex tech is designed to improve flexibility over time.

Marks or scuffs on the upper

Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth. For tougher marks on faux-leather, a mild leather cleaner might be suitable, test on an inconspicuous area first.

Care:
