FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the 4D midsole?

The 3D-printed 4D midsole is engineered to absorb impact and provide a smooth, forward-propelling sensation with every stride, enhancing running efficiency.

Are these shoes suitable for trail running?

These trainers are best suited for city running and paved surfaces. While the outsole offers traction, they are not designed for technical trails.

What does 'Midsole drop: 11 mm' mean?

The midsole drop refers to the difference in height between the heel (30 mm) and the forefoot (19 mm) of the shoe, resulting in an 11 mm difference. This is considered a moderate drop.

How do I clean the textile upper?

Use a damp cloth to wipe the upper. For tougher stains, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by rinsing with a clean damp cloth. Always air dry.

What is the weight of these shoes?

The shoes weigh approximately 309 grams for a UK size 8.5.

What materials are used in the construction?

The shoes feature a textile upper, textile lining, a 3D-printed 4D midsole, and a synthetic outsole. They are made with a blend of recycled and renewable materials.

Can I put these shoes in a washing machine?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash or machine dry these shoes, as it can damage the materials and construction. Hand wash and air dry only.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have the correct size. The textile upper may require a short break-in period. Try adjusting the lace tension for a more personalized fit.

Midsole feels less responsive over time

Regular cleaning of the midsole and outsole can help maintain performance. Ensure the shoes are not excessively exposed to extreme temperatures, which can affect material properties.

Traction issues on wet surfaces

The synthetic outsole provides good grip on dry surfaces. For wet conditions, proceed with caution as with any running shoe. Ensure the outsole is free from debris.
