FAQs
What makes the Archfit system different?
The Archfit system is a podiatrist-designed insole with a contoured, supportive arch that aims to provide stability and comfort, particularly for those needing arch support.
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
These trainers are best suited for light running, walking, and general fitness activities. For marathon running, specialized high-performance running shoes might be more appropriate.
Can I replace the Archfit insole with my own orthotics?
Yes, the insole is typically removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if needed. Check the fit to ensure it works with your specific orthotic.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to the brand's sizing chart, which usually correlates UK sizes with foot measurements. Ensure you measure your foot length accurately.
What is the primary benefit of the blue and white colorway?
The blue and white colorway offers a versatile aesthetic that easily pairs with various athletic and casual outfits.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, these trainers are not designed to be waterproof. They are made with breathable materials for ventilation.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort in the arch area
Ensure the correct size is being worn. If discomfort persists, the Archfit system may not be suitable for your specific foot mechanics. Try wearing them for shorter periods initially to allow for adaptation.
Slightly stiff materials
New shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house to allow the materials to soften and conform to your feet.
Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces
The outsole is designed for general traction. For significantly wet or slippery conditions, consider shoes with specialized outsoles. Clean the outsole regularly to remove any debris that could affect grip.
