FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

These trainers are best suited for casual wear, walking, and light training. They are not specifically designed for long-distance running or high-impact athletic activities.

How should I clean the leather parts of the shoe?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For more persistent marks on the leather, apply a small amount of a suitable leather cleaner with a soft cloth, then wipe clean.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is made from a combination of textile and leather materials.

Do these shoes offer arch support?

The shoes provide standard cushioning for everyday comfort. For specific arch support needs, consider using insoles designed for added support.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and structure of the shoes. Hand clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.

What is the fit like?

The shoes have a regular fit, designed to be comfortable for most adult foot shapes. They feature a lace closure for adjustability.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and ensure they are not tied too tightly. If the issue persists, consider wearing thinner socks or breaking the shoes in over a few days.

Slipping occurs on wet surfaces

The synthetic outsole provides good traction under normal conditions. For very wet or slippery surfaces, exercise caution as specialized grip footwear may be needed.

Discomfort after prolonged wear

Ensure the correct size is being worn. The shoes may require a short break-in period. If discomfort continues, check for any internal stitching or seams causing irritation.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your adidas KAPTIR Base Shoes:
