FAQs

What is the main inspiration behind the Ub13-S Gel-SD Lyte design?

The design draws inspiration from the concept of 'simultanism', featuring contrasting color palettes on the cage-like construction of the upper and abstract applications that contrast with the mesh material.

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

These trainers are designed for streetwear and light training. While they offer comfort and cushioning, they are not optimized for the demands of marathon running or high-intensity athletic performance.

How do I clean the mesh and leather parts of the trainers?

Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For mesh, a soft brush can be used gently. Avoid harsh chemicals. Allow to air dry naturally.

What does 'limited edition' mean for this product?

It means that only a specific number of these trainers were produced as part of a collaboration with Kiko Kostadinov Studio. Once sold out, they may not be restocked.

What is the benefit of the GEL™ Technology Cushioning?

The GEL™ Technology Cushioning provides enhanced shock absorption, offering superior comfort and reducing impact stress on the feet and joints during wear.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the trainers offer some protection, they are not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. Ensure they are dried thoroughly if they get wet.

What UK shoe size is represented by 'UK 11.5'?

'UK 11.5' refers to the British sizing standard for men's footwear, indicating a specific length and width measurement.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or poor fit

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Consider trying on with different sock thicknesses. Break-in period may be required for new shoes.

Squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur due to friction between parts of the shoe. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or check for any loose components.

Color transfer on socks

This is more likely with new, darker colored shoes. Washing the insoles or wearing darker socks can help mitigate this. If severe, contact customer support.

Reduced cushioning effect

Over time, GEL™ cushioning can compress. Ensure the shoes are not overused for strenuous activities. Consider replacing if the cushioning feels significantly diminished.
