FAQs

What is the primary intended use for these trainers?

These trainers are designed for everyday streetwear, long walks, and general comfort. They are not intended for high-performance athletic activities.

How do I clean the reflective inserts?

Wipe the reflective inserts gently with a damp cloth. Avoid rubbing them aggressively or using abrasive cleaners, which could damage the reflective surface.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While they offer cushioning, they are primarily designed for casual wear and walking. For dedicated running, specialized running shoes are recommended.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is made of a synthetic material, designed to be breathable and lightweight. Some versions also incorporate suede.

How should I care for the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a suede brush to clean off dirt and dust. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner, following the product's instructions carefully. Avoid getting suede excessively wet.

Do these trainers offer arch support?

They feature a midfoot stabilization system for a secure fit, but they are not specifically designed with advanced arch support for medical conditions. For significant arch support needs, consider adding insoles.

Can I wear these in wet conditions?

The synthetic upper offers some resistance, but the suede material is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain.

Troubleshooting

Slight stiffness upon first wear

New trainers can sometimes feel stiff. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape.

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure you have the correct size and that the laces are not overtightened. Consider wearing appropriate socks.

Suede looking dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher marks, a dedicated suede cleaner may be required, used sparingly and according to instructions.

Care:
