FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

The GEL-VENTURE 11 is designed for everyday comfort and light sport use. For marathon running, specialized running shoes with advanced support and cushioning tailored for long distances are recommended.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. The heel should feel secure without slipping.

Can these trainers be used for trail running?

They are suitable for light trail use due to their moulded rubber outsole. For challenging or technical trails, dedicated trail running shoes with more aggressive grip and protection are advisable.

What does 'AMPLIFOAM PLUS' mean?

AMPLIFOAM PLUS is a specific cushioning material used in the midsole, offering a softer feel and improved shock absorption compared to standard foams.

How often should I clean my trainers?

Clean your trainers as needed, especially after exposure to dirt or significant use. Regular spot cleaning with a damp cloth will help maintain their appearance and hygiene.

What is the benefit of the OrthoLite Hybrid Max Lite Insole?

This insole provides enhanced moisture management to keep feet dry, improved ventilation for breathability, and additional cushioning for comfort.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the GEL-VENTURE 11 trainers are not waterproof. They are constructed with mesh and synthetic materials for breathability, making them suitable for dry to mildly damp conditions.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit. Check for any loose threads or debris inside the shoe. Consider wearing with appropriate athletic socks.

Reduced cushioning over time

The cushioning may naturally reduce with extensive use. Ensure the insole is clean and properly seated. For significantly worn cushioning, consider replacing the insoles.

Traction issues on wet surfaces

The moulded rubber outsole provides good traction for typical use, but performance on very wet or slick surfaces may be reduced. Exercise caution in such conditions.
