FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The Karhu Legacy 96 are designed primarily for everyday wear and light activity. While they offer good cushioning and support, they are not intended for high-impact running or professional athletic training.

What is the 'Air Cushion' technology?

The Air Cushion technology refers to the specific cushioning system integrated into the heel of the shoe, designed to absorb shock and provide comfort during wear.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The shoes should feel snug but not tight, with enough room for your toes to move freely. Consider the width of your foot and try them on with the type of socks you typically wear.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, especially the suede and cushioning components.

What is the main difference between the Legacy and other Karhu models?

The Legacy series represents Karhu's heritage in sports footwear, often featuring designs that honor iconic models from their past, like the Legacy 96, with a focus on comfort and classic styling.

How durable is the suede material?

Suede is a durable material when properly cared for. Regular brushing and protection against excessive moisture will help maintain its condition and longevity.

Troubleshooting

Slight discomfort upon first wear.

This is normal as the shoes break in. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase the duration. Ensure you have selected the correct size.

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Use a dedicated suede brush to lift dirt. For stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

Reduced traction on wet surfaces.

The rubber outsole provides good grip, but wet surfaces can be inherently slippery. Exercise caution on wet ground. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning Suede: Use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. For tougher stains, a suede cleaner specifically designed for this material can be used. Avoid using water excessively, as it can damage the suede.
  • Cleaning Mesh: Use a soft cloth dampened with cool water and mild soap to clean the mesh panels. Gently wipe away dirt and allow to air dry away from direct heat.
  • Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning. Wash with mild soap and water and allow to dry completely before reinserting.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or original box, to protect from dust and moisture.
