FAQs
Are the K-Swiss Fario trainers waterproof?
While the leather upper provides some resistance to light splashes, these trainers are not waterproof and should not be submerged.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are generally removable, allowing you to swap them for custom orthotics if preferred.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These are designed as all-purpose trainers for gym use and everyday activity, rather than specialized long-distance running shoes.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
What is the primary material used?
This specific variant features a durable leather upper, though other variants in the Fario series may use faux leather.
How does the sizing run?
The K-Swiss Fario is designed with a standard fit; it is recommended to order your usual size, noting that leather may stretch slightly over time.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too stiff during initial wear
Leather requires a break-in period; wear them for short durations indoors to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot.
Laces coming untied frequently
Double-knot the laces or ensure they are pulled evenly from the bottom eyelets upward for a more balanced tension.
Accumulated dirt on the outsole
Use a soft-bristled brush with mild soapy water to scrub the rubber outsole, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience with your Fario trainers, begin by adjusting the laces to match your foot width; the padded collar should sit snugly against your ankle without digging in. For maintenance, wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth after use to remove dust and debris. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can strip the leather's natural finish. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the leather from cracking. Storing the shoes in a cool, dry place when not in use will extend the life of the CMEVA midsole and internal padding.
