FAQs

Are the Karhu Fusion 2.0 shoes waterproof?

No, they are made from leather, suede, and mesh, which are porous materials. We recommend using a protective spray to help repel light moisture.

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing, but if you prefer a looser fit or intend to wear thick socks, you may consider going half a size up.

Can I machine wash my Karhu Fusion 2.0s?

No, machine washing can cause the leather to crack and the suede to lose its texture. Always clean by hand using appropriate brushes and cloths.

What is the primary material used in the upper?

The upper is constructed from a combination of grained leather and suede overlays, supported by breathable mesh panels.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to swap them out for custom orthotics if required.

How do I spot the reflective accents?

The reflective elements are integrated into the design and will appear when light hits them directly, such as from headlights or camera flashes.

Troubleshooting

Visible water or dirt stains on the suede panels

Use a specialized suede eraser or a suede-specific cleaning brush to gently buff away the stain; do not use heavy water.

Laces becoming loose during the day

Ensure the rope laces are double-knotted or tightened firmly through the eyelets; if they continue to slip, consider replacing them with standard flat laces.

Creasing on the leather toe box

This is a natural occurrence with premium leather; use a shoe tree when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the shoe's shape and minimize deep creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Karhu Fusion 2.0 trainers, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Initial Protection: Apply a water and stain repellent spray suitable for leather and suede before the first wear to protect against spills and light rain.
  2. Routine Maintenance: Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust and dirt from the suede panels after each use.
  3. Cleaning: For tougher stains on leather sections, wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the suede and leather components.
  4. Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading of the leather and mesh materials.
  5. Lace Care: If the rope laces become dirty, remove them and hand-wash in mild soapy water; air dry them completely before re-lacing.
