FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for long walks?
Yes, the comfort-focused design and BLOOM Foam insole make them suitable for extended periods of walking on casual terrain.
How do I clean the BLOOM Foam insole?
The BLOOM Foam insole can be spot cleaned with a damp cloth. Ensure the trainers are completely dry before wearing again.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While they offer some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage and discomfort.
What makes the insole sustainable?
The insole is made from BLOOM Foam, which utilizes algae biomass. This process helps clean waterways and reduces reliance on petroleum-based materials.
What are the decorative laces for?
The decorative laces are a style feature that adds to the aesthetic of the shoe. They function similarly to regular laces for securing the fit but are designed to enhance the visual appeal.
Do these trainers run true to size?
Sizing can vary between shoe models. It is recommended to check the specific size chart provided by Blowfish Malibu or consult customer reviews for fit guidance.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort after initial wear
Allow a break-in period of a few wears. Ensure laces are adjusted for a snug but not tight fit. If discomfort persists, consider if the size is appropriate.
Scuff marks on the white exterior
Gently wipe the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn marks, use a magic eraser sponge with light pressure.
Decorative laces becoming untied or loose
Re-tie the laces securely. If the issue is frequent, consider adding a small dab of fabric glue or a clear nail polish to the knot to help it stay in place.
