FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
These trainers are best suited for gym workouts, light exercise, and lifestyle walking rather than marathon-length running.
How do I ensure the correct size?
The Melrose Tubes Lite fit standard UK sizing; it is recommended to select your usual size for a secure, comfortable fit.
Can these be machine washed?
Machine washing is not recommended as it may damage the adhesive and structural integrity of the tube cushioning.
What is the primary benefit of the Tubes technology?
The technology provides superior shock absorption and energy return, resulting in a more responsive and comfortable walking experience.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the engineered mesh upper is designed for breathability rather than water resistance.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if additional support is needed.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt accumulation on the mesh upper
Gently brush the dry surface with a soft-bristled brush, then wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap.
Unpleasant odor after extended wear
Remove the insoles to air dry and sprinkle with a small amount of athletic shoe deodorizing powder.
Reduced cushioning effectiveness
Check if debris is trapped between the tube structures and remove it carefully with a non-sharp tool.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your K-SWISS Melrose Tubes Lite, keep them dry and clean. Because the upper is crafted from an engineered mesh, it is recommended to use a soft-bristle brush to remove surface debris after outdoor use. For deeper cleaning, apply a mild detergent solution with a damp cloth, avoiding abrasive scrubbing that could damage the mesh fibers. Store the shoes in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration of the white materials. To maintain optimal support, replace the trainers if you notice significant compression or wear in the tube cushioning system.
