FAQs

What is the primary inspiration for the Fusion 2.0?

The Fusion 2.0 is inspired by and a reinterpretation of Karhu's original 'Fusion' model from 1996, which was once the flagship running shoe in their collection. It blends this iconic design with modern materials and comfort features.

What does Karhu's 'Fulcrum Technology' do?

Karhu's Fulcrum technology is designed to guide the foot through its natural gait cycle, aiming to reduce impact forces and improve running efficiency. It provides a stable base that promotes a smoother transition from heel strike to toe-off.

Are these shoes suitable for actual running?

While the Fusion 2.0 has roots in running heritage and features cushioning technology, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers for everyday wear. For serious athletic running, specialized running shoes would be recommended.

How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and restore the nap. For stains, a dedicated suede cleaner should be used following the product's specific instructions. Avoid washing the entire shoe.

What materials are used in the upper construction?

The upper is constructed using a combination of suede and leather overlays, with hairy suede underlays, mesh panels, and reflective details for a blend of style, durability, and breathability.

Do the trainers have good grip?

Yes, the trainers feature a durable rubber outsole designed to provide excellent traction and reliability on a variety of terrains.

What is the benefit of the heel pull tab?

The heel pull tab is a functional design element that makes it easier to pull the trainers on and off.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels incorrect

Refer to the official Karhu sizing chart and measure your foot to ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Consider the width and overall fit based on user reviews if available.

Suede appears matted or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consider a specialized suede cleaner, following product instructions carefully.

Sole feels stiff initially

The dual-density EVA midsole may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for short durations initially to allow them to conform to your foot's shape.

Reflective details show wear

Avoid harsh cleaning agents or excessive scrubbing on reflective areas. Gentle spot cleaning is recommended to preserve their reflectivity.
