FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathons?
The Downshifter 14 is ideal for daily training and shorter distances; for long-distance marathon racing, you may prefer a model with more specialized arch support.
How do I choose the right size?
These trainers follow standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to leave a thumb's width of space at the front of the shoe to account for foot expansion.
Can I put these in the dryer?
No, high heat can damage the foam midsole and the adhesive used in the construction. Always air dry your trainers.
Are they waterproof?
No, the engineered open-hole mesh is designed for maximum breathability, which means it is not waterproof.
Do they provide arch support?
They feature neutral cushioning. If you have specific medical requirements for high-arch support, you may consider adding custom insoles.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight during a run
Adjust the tension of the laces along the midfoot to allow for natural foot swelling that occurs during exercise.
Accumulation of debris in the mesh
Gently tap the shoes against each other or use a dry, soft brush to dislodge particles from the open-hole mesh.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, verify your UK adult size before first use, as the lace fastening system relies on your initial tension adjustment. For cleaning, avoid the washing machine; instead, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for spot cleaning. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to maintain the integrity of the foam midsole.
