FAQs
What makes the 3D-printed midsole different?
The 3D-printed midsole uses Digital Light Synthesis™ (DLS) technology to create a complex lattice structure that provides highly precise cushioning, energy return, and support tailored to the needs of an athlete.
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
While they offer excellent cushioning and support for training runs, their suitability for marathon distances depends on individual preference and experience. They are generally well-suited for daily mileage and shorter to mid-distance runs.
How do I choose the right size?
The Futurecraft 4D trainers are listed by UK adult foot size. Refer to Adidas's official sizing chart for the most accurate conversion if needed. They feature a sock-like fit, so ensure they are snug but not constricting.
Can I put these in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended. Hand wash the components separately using mild soap and water, and always air dry.
What is the primary benefit of the Primeknit upper?
The Primeknit upper provides a breathable, flexible, and sock-like fit that conforms to the shape of your foot, offering comfort and reducing the risk of irritation or blisters.
How durable is the 3D-printed midsole?
The 3D-printed midsole is designed for durability through athletic use. However, it requires careful cleaning and should be protected from extreme temperatures or sharp objects to maintain its integrity.
Troubleshooting
Midsole feels less responsive over time.
Ensure the midsole is clean and free from debris. Follow the recommended cleaning procedure. If the issue persists, it may be due to normal wear and tear.
Primeknit upper feels too tight or loose.
The Primeknit is designed to be adaptive. If it feels too tight, try wearing thinner socks. If too loose, ensure the laces are tied correctly for a secure fit.
Traction on the outsole is reduced.
Clean the outsole grooves to remove any embedded dirt or debris. If the tread is visibly worn down, it may be time to consider replacing the shoes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These trainers are designed primarily for athletic performance, particularly running and general training. They are compatible with most athletic apparel.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Midsole: Gently clean the 3D-printed midsole with a soft brush and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools, as these can damage the delicate lattice structure.
- Cleaning the Upper: The Primeknit upper can be cleaned with a damp cloth. For stubborn stains, use a small amount of mild detergent and water, then wipe clean with a fresh damp cloth.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can deform the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the materials and color.
