FAQs

What makes the Fresh Foam X midsole beneficial?

The Fresh Foam X midsole provides advanced cushioning, offering a soft yet responsive feel to enhance comfort during prolonged wear and impact absorption.

Are these trainers suitable for serious hiking?

These trainers are best suited for light trails and urban environments. For demanding, technical hiking, a more specialized hiking boot is recommended.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Adjust the lace fastening to secure your foot comfortably. The trainers are designed to provide a snug fit without being overly tight. Refer to sizing charts if unsure.

What materials are used in the upper?

The upper is constructed from a combination of ripstop fabric and synthetic overlays with a metallic finish.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended. Hand-clean gently using a damp cloth and mild soap as per the care instructions to preserve the materials.

What is the significance of the CAYL collaboration?

The collaboration with CAYL brings a unique, utilitarian design perspective, merging technical outdoor functionality with everyday wearability.

How durable is the rubber sole?

The rugged rubber sole is designed for durability and reliable traction on various surfaces, extending the lifespan of the trainers for regular use.

Troubleshooting

Slight stiffness on first wear.

The trainers may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time as they conform to your foot.

Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces.

Ensure the rubber sole is clean and free from mud or debris. While designed for grip, very slick surfaces can still pose challenges. Dry thoroughly if they become wet.

Discoloration on metallic panels.

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions.

Care:

  1. Cleaning Uppers: Gently wipe the ripstop and synthetic overlays with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the materials or metallic finish.
  2. Midsole Care: Clean the Fresh Foam X midsole with a soft brush or cloth. For stubborn dirt, use mild soap and water, then wipe clean.
  3. Sole Maintenance: Remove loose dirt from the rubber sole with a brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth.
  4. Drying: Air dry the trainers naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials and affect the shape.
