FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
No, these are designed for functional gym training and short sprints; they lack the long-distance support and cushioning required for marathon running.
Does the insole come out?
Yes, the Footadapt insole is removable, which allows for airing or the insertion of custom orthotics if required.
How do I ensure the right fit?
The Dropset 4 fits true to size. We recommend measuring your feet while wearing the socks you typically use for training to ensure the best fit.
Can I use these for outdoor bootcamps?
Yes, the Continental rubber outsole is durable enough for outdoor use, though the white colorway may show dirt more easily.
What makes these different from standard running shoes?
Unlike running shoes which prioritize forward motion and maximum shock absorption, the Dropset 4 prioritizes a lower, stable platform essential for weight lifting.
Troubleshooting
Feeling instability during heavy lifts
Ensure the laces are pulled tight through the upper eyelets to engage the lockdown system, and verify that your feet are correctly centered on the footbed.
Outsole collecting gym debris
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dust and particles from the tread pattern to maintain optimal grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Dropset 4 trainers last, start by ensuring a secure lace closure that utilizes all eyelets to take full advantage of the internal support structures. As these are fitness-specific shoes, avoid using them for daily outdoor trekking to protect the specialized rubber outsoles. To clean, wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Remove the insoles occasionally to air them out, and always allow the shoes to dry naturally at room temperature away from direct heat sources, which can damage the foam midsole.
