FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

While the DREAM midsole offers cushioning, the Altamesa 500 v2 is primarily designed for daily training and shorter to moderate distances. For marathon distances, consider shoes with more advanced, long-distance cushioning systems.

How do I clean the Surface CTRL™ outsole?

Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris from the outsole. Avoid using abrasive materials or high-pressure water.

What is the main benefit of the DREAM midsole?

The DREAM midsole is designed to provide lightweight cushioning, offering a comfortable and responsive feel during your runs while helping to absorb impact.

Can these shoes be used for gym workouts?

Yes, the grip and stability features make them suitable for general gym workouts and cross-training activities.

Is there a specific way to put on these shoes?

Yes, the shoes feature a pull tab at the heel to assist in easily slipping them on. Then, use the lace-up closure to secure them.

What is the warranty period for these trainers?

Please refer to The North Face's official warranty policy for details regarding product coverage and duration, as this can vary by region and retailer.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and adjust for a more comfortable fit. Consider wearing them for shorter periods initially to allow them to break in.

Reduced grip on surfaces

Ensure the Surface CTRL™ outsole is clean and free from debris. Mud or excessive dirt can reduce traction.

Cushioning feels stiff

New shoes may require a break-in period. Wear them for short, frequent runs to allow the DREAM midsole to soften and conform to your foot.
