FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?
The Viva Speed is designed primarily for short, daily training sessions and beginners; it may lack the advanced support required for high-mileage marathon training.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as the heat and agitation can damage the materials and the adhesive of the outsole.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is crafted from lightweight, breathable polyester.
Does this shoe provide extra arch support?
The Viva Speed offers a standard fit with cushioned EVA support. If you have specific medical requirements, you may consider adding an aftermarket orthotic insole.
Are these trainers true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adult UK sizing; however, it is recommended to leave a thumb's width of space at the front for optimal comfort during running.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel too tight or loose during a run
Try a different lacing technique, such as the 'runner's loop' or skipping an eyelet to adjust pressure across the bridge of your foot.
Outsole collecting small debris
Use a dull, flat-edged tool to gently pry out pebbles or stones stuck in the tread pattern after your session to maintain maximum grip.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longest lifespan for your Viva Speed trainers, proper care is essential. When first using the shoes, adjust the lace tension starting from the bottom eyelets to achieve a lockdown that is snug but does not restrict circulation.
Care Instructions
- Cleaning: Wipe away loose dirt with a soft brush after each run. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap; do not submerge in water or use harsh chemical detergents.
- Drying: Air dry only at room temperature. Avoid placing the shoes near direct heat sources like radiators, as this can degrade the EVA midsole material.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent the vibrant blue accents from fading.
