Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is constructed from engineered mesh, which is primarily polyester, offering breathability and a comfortable fit.

How do I know if I have the right size?

You should have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The shoe should feel snug but not tight around the midfoot and heel.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash or machine dry these trainers, as it can damage the materials and adhesives. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not overtightened. If the issue persists, consider alternative lacing techniques or if the size is appropriate for your foot width.

Reduced cushioning responsiveness

Ensure the shoes are properly broken in. Over time, cushioning can naturally decrease. Consider if the shoes have reached the end of their typical lifespan (usually 300-500 miles).

Discomfort during runs

Verify the shoe size and width are correct. Ensure socks are appropriate and not bunching. If discomfort continues, the shoe's specific fit or cushioning profile may not be suitable for your biomechanics.
