FAQs

Are these Tekwen Slip-On Trainers suitable for running?

These trainers are designed with comfort and modern style for light athletic activities and everyday wear. While they offer cushioning, their laceless, slip-on design may not provide the necessary support and lockdown for intense running or high-impact sports. For dedicated running, trainers with traditional lacing are generally recommended.

How do I clean my adidas Tekwen Slip-On Trainers?

For the synthetic upper, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Use a soft brush for the mesh tongue to remove dirt. The rubber outsole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat or sunlight.

What does 'laceless' mean for the fit?

Laceless means there are no traditional shoelaces to tie, making them easy to slip on and off. The fit relies on the shoe's construction and 'regular fit' design to hug your foot comfortably. This offers convenience but less adjustability than lace-up trainers.

Can I wear these trainers for sports like tennis or basketball?

While inspired by tennis DNA, these slip-on trainers are not designed for the specific demands of high-performance sports like tennis or basketball, which require specialized support, lateral stability, and lockdown typically provided by lace-up sports shoes. They are better suited for casual wear and light activities.

What is an 'EVA midsole'?

EVA stands for Ethylene-vinyl acetate. It's a soft, flexible, and lightweight material commonly used in shoe midsoles. Its purpose is to provide cushioning and absorb impact, enhancing comfort during walking and light activity.

Is the sizing true to UK size?

Yes, these trainers are listed in UK sizing. However, please ensure you try your footwear on before returning, as sometimes the box or label may also state a US/Euro size which might be different to the UK size you are accustomed to.

Troubleshooting

My trainers feel too loose or too tight.

Given the laceless design, precise adjustment isn't possible. Ensure you've selected the correct UK size. Try wearing different thickness socks to adjust the fit slightly. Consider that the 'regular fit' might simply not be ideal for all unique foot shapes.

My feet feel hot or sweaty after short wear.

While the mesh tongue provides breathability, ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks. If the environment is very warm, even breathable shoes can feel warm. Allow trainers to air out fully between wears.

The trainers are making squeaking noises.

Squeaking can sometimes occur if moisture gets between the sole and the shoe's upper, or due to a new material settling. Try placing a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole. If it's the outsole, ensure it's clean and dry. Persistent squeaking might indicate a manufacturing issue.

The sole feels slippery on certain surfaces.

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free of dirt, mud, or debris that could reduce traction. Check the tread for excessive wear. If the treads are significantly worn down, the grip will naturally diminish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup

Setting up your Tekwen Slip-On Trainers is straightforward:

  1. Unpack: Remove trainers from their packaging.
  2. Try On: Slip your feet into the trainers. Ensure a comfortable, 'regular fit'.
  3. Check Fit: Walk around to confirm the fit feels secure without being too tight or too loose. If the box or label states a US/Euro size, ensure you are referencing the correct UK size for your comfort.

Care

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your trainers:

  • Cleaning the Upper: For the synthetic upper, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  • Cleaning the Mesh Tongue: Use a soft brush or cloth to gently clean the mesh to maintain breathability.
  • Cleaning the Outsole: Brush off dirt and debris from the rubber outsole. For deeper cleaning, a damp cloth and mild detergent can be used.
  • Drying: Air dry your trainers at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can damage materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to maintain their shape and material integrity. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
