FAQs
Are these shoes good for running?
These trainers are primarily designed for weightlifting and strength training, offering maximum stability. While they can handle short bursts of cardio, they lack the cushioning and specific design features for comfortable or efficient long-distance running.
How do I know if the wide fit is right for me?
If your feet tend to splay outwards during lifts, or if you find standard-width shoes feel constricting, the wide fit is likely beneficial. You should feel comfortable and have room for your toes to spread naturally without being overly loose.
Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. The harsh agitation and heat can damage the materials, adhesives, and structure of the shoe. Hand washing and air drying is the preferred method.
What is the TPU midfoot torsion system?
The TPU midfoot torsion system is a supportive element embedded in the midsole. It helps to control the shoe's torsional rigidity, providing stability and support during dynamic movements and preventing the midfoot from twisting excessively.
How durable are these trainers for daily use?
These trainers are built with durable materials and construction methods to withstand regular, intense training sessions. However, like all athletic footwear, their lifespan will depend on the frequency and intensity of use, as well as proper care.
What colors are available?
These trainers are available in various colorways including Blue/White, White, and Black/Grey, depending on the specific model and retailer.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose
Ensure you are wearing the appropriate socks for training. If the fit is consistently off, consider trying a half-size up or down, or if you have narrow feet, you may need to explore lacing techniques for a more secure fit.
Slipping during lifts
Check that the gym floor or lifting surface is clean and dry. Ensure the shoe's outsole is free from debris. If the issue persists, the shoe may not be providing sufficient grip for your specific lifting style or surface.
Mesh upper shows signs of wear
Avoid excessive abrasion against rough surfaces. If minor tears occur, consider reinforcing them with fabric glue suitable for athletic wear, but significant damage may indicate the need for replacement.
