FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, these trainers are made from suede and are not waterproof. We recommend applying a suede-safe water repellent spray if you intend to wear them in damp conditions.
Can I replace the footbed?
The interior footbed is designed to be a core part of the shoe's comfort system, but it is removable for drying or refreshing if necessary.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Use the tongue-to-toe lacing to pull the shoe snug across your forefoot. If you feel pressure, loosen the laces starting from the toe box working upward.
Does the anti-odor treatment wear off?
The eco-friendly treatment is long-lasting, though its effectiveness may naturally diminish over several years of heavy use.
Are these suitable for gym use?
While the non-marking sole is gym-friendly, these trainers are primarily lifestyle shoes and lack the specific lateral support found in high-performance cross-training gear.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels firm initially
The recycled PU and cork footbed is designed to mold to your foot over time. Wear them consistently for several days to allow the material to adapt.
Surface dirt on suede
Allow the mud to dry completely before attempting to brush it off, as wet cleaning can push dirt deeper into the suede fibers.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent anatomical support through the cork-based footbed
- Highly secure fit thanks to the extended lacing system
- Environmentally conscious design with natural anti-odor technology
- Versatile design suitable for casual and light activity
Cons
- Suede material is susceptible to staining if not treated
- Requires manual brushing to maintain the nap of the suede
- Not intended for heavy-duty technical hiking
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your KEEN trainers remain in optimal condition, proper care is essential.
Maintenance Instructions:
- Loose Dirt: Use a soft-bristled brush to gently sweep away dust and dry debris.
- Stain Removal: Use a gum eraser specifically designed for suede to lift surface stains without damaging the texture.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
Because these trainers feature a specialized fit, ensure you are wearing your standard athletic sock thickness when first trying them on to accurately gauge the lacing tension required.
