FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While these are comfortable for light walking and daily wear, they are classified as trainers and may not provide the technical support required for long-distance or high-intensity professional running.
How do I determine my size?
This model follows standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to compare your current comfortable footwear size with the UK 4.5 sizing provided.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, it is highly recommended to avoid machine washing as it can compromise the structural integrity and the performance of the Air Max cushioning unit.
Are the laces replaceable?
Yes, you can replace the laces with any standard-length athletic laces if you desire a different style or need a replacement.
Is the sole non-slip?
The rubber waffle outsole provides excellent standard traction for sidewalks and urban surfaces, but it is not specifically certified as non-slip for industrial work environments.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt or debris on the mesh upper
Gently use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to dab the area rather than scrubbing harshly to avoid damaging the material fibers.
Creasing in the toe area
Use shoe trees when not in use to help the shoe maintain its shape and minimize excessive creasing from storage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last, follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe away loose dirt with a soft-bristled brush after each use. For stains, use a mild soap and cold water solution on a cloth, then air dry away from direct heat sources.
- Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight or hot vehicles for extended periods, as this can affect the cushioning unit.
- Fit: Ensure you verify your sizing against the UK sizing standard, as the fit should be snug but comfortable with enough room in the toe box for natural movement.
- Rotation: If possible, rotate your footwear every other day to allow the materials to air out fully, which helps in maintaining the shape and structural integrity of the shoe.
