FAQs

How do I clean the trainers?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the surface. For tougher stains, use a specialized cleaner for suede, mesh, and leather.

Are these trainers true to size?

Sizing can vary; it is recommended to consult the Y-3 size guide or try them on to ensure a comfortable fit.

Can I wear these trainers for running?

While suitable for light activity, they are primarily designed for lifestyle and fashion purposes. For serious running, consider dedicated running shoes.

What materials are used in the trainers?

The trainers feature a mix of mesh, suede, and leather for the upper, with Lightstrike cushioning and a Pebax® plate in the midsole.

How should I store my Y-3 Gendo Run Trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and damage.

What is the lifespan of the cushioning?

The cushioning's lifespan depends on usage and care, but typically, the cushioning remains effective for a considerable time. Replace the trainers when cushioning noticeably degrades.

Where can I find the Y-3 size guide?

The Y-3 size guide can usually be found on the official Y-3 website or at retailers that sell Y-3 products.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure you have the correct size. The unique design may affect sizing; consider trying a different size or consulting the Y-3 size guide.

Stains or marks on the suede or leather.

Use a specialized suede or leather cleaner, following the product instructions carefully. Test in an inconspicuous area first.

Cushioning feels less responsive over time.

This is normal wear and tear. However, ensure the trainers are not consistently exposed to extreme temperatures, which can degrade the materials more quickly. Consider replacing them after extensive use.
