FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Ghost Sprint is primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer for casual use and walking rather than for long-distance running or high-impact athletic training.
How do I choose the right size?
The Ghost Sprint fits true to size for most users, but given the molded design, consider your usual UK size and allow for a small amount of 'break-in' time for the leather.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather upper and the structural adhesive. Stick to manual spot cleaning with a damp cloth.
Does the leather stretch?
Leather will soften and naturally contour to the shape of your foot with regular wear, but it will not expand significantly in size.
Is the insole removable?
Yes, the molded insole can typically be removed for cleaning or to replace with custom orthotics if required.
Troubleshooting
Leather looks dull or loses its shine
Apply a high-quality leather conditioner or cream to restore moisture and shine to the material.
Squeaking sounds during walking
Check if the insole has shifted or if moisture is trapped inside; remove the insole, let the shoe air dry completely, and replace the insole.
Laces coming undone frequently
Replace standard laces with textured athletic laces or use a double-knot technique for a more secure hold.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Ghost Sprint trainers stay in optimal condition, begin by ensuring you have the correct UK sizing, as the molded structure offers a snug, precise fit. When lacing, do not over-tighten, as the leather will naturally conform to your foot over time. For care, wipe away loose dirt with a soft, dry brush after each use. If the leather becomes soiled, use a damp cloth and a specialized leather cleaner to gently remove stains. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents, as this can degrade the leather quality. Always store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to prevent cracking.
