FAQs

What type of running is this shoe best for?

How do I know if this is the right size?

This specific product listing is for a UK size 7.5. It's recommended to try on the shoes to ensure a comfortable fit, checking for adequate toe room and a snug heel.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

What is the main cushioning technology used?

The primary cushioning technology is Fresh Foam, which provides an ultra-cushioned and lightweight ride.

Does the shoe offer arch support?

The shoe provides underfoot comfort with its integrated rubber outsole and Fresh Foam cushioning. For specific arch support needs, consulting with a footwear specialist is recommended.

What does 'bio-based content' refer to?

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and adjust them to provide more room, especially over the instep. Ensure you have the correct size. If still too tight, consider alternate lacing techniques.

Reduced cushioning over time

Fresh Foam cushioning may naturally compress with extensive use. For optimal performance, consider replacing trainers after a significant mileage threshold (typically 300-500 miles).

Mesh upper appears dirty

Gently clean the mesh with a soft brush and a mild soap and water mixture. Dab with a damp cloth and allow to air dry completely away from direct heat.
