FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they are manufactured in a standard D-width fit, which generally aligns with standard adult UK sizing.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can damage the suede materials and compromise the adhesive integrity of the sole.
What is the difference between ABZORB and N-ergy?
ABZORB focuses on cushioning and shock absorption in the midsole, while N-ergy provides energy return and impact stability in the outsole.
Are these suitable for running?
While based on running technology, the 2002R is primarily designed as a lifestyle and fashion-focused trainer for daily wear.
How often should I treat the suede?
It is recommended to use a suede protector spray before the first wear and reapply periodically based on your environment.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on suede surfaces
Use a specialized suede brush or gum eraser to gently lift debris. Avoid water.
Creasing in the toe box area
This is normal with suede and mesh footwear. Use shoe trees when not wearing to help maintain the original shape.
Discoloration of the mesh
Gently wipe with a soft cloth dampened with a very mild soap solution and allow to air dry away from heat sources.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The 2002R trainers arrive ready for immediate use with a standard D-width fit. To ensure the longevity of your footwear, follow these care guidelines:

- Suede Maintenance: Only use a specialist suede cleaner or eraser. Avoid getting the suede excessively wet to prevent water spots or texture damage.
