Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for serious running?

The ProGrid Paramount trainers are designed with running DNA and offer comfort for everyday wear and light activity. For high-performance running, competitive racing, or intense training, we recommend specialized running shoes.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is primarily constructed from open air mesh, which provides excellent breathability.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer or manufacturer, measuring your foot length from heel to toe. These trainers are available in UK men's sizes. Check the specific product listing for available sizes.

Can I wear these in the rain?

Due to the open mesh construction, these trainers offer limited protection against rain and wet conditions. They are best suited for dry weather or light moisture.

What does 'Y2K design' mean in this context?

Y2K design refers to the fashion and technology trends prevalent around the year 2000. For these trainers, it means they are styled after a running shoe originally released in 2007, reflecting the aesthetic of that era.

Does the shoe offer good ankle support?

The trainers feature a lined outer collar and a moulded TPU heel cup, which provide moderate support and a secure fit around the ankle area.

Are there other color options available?

The ProGrid Paramount series is available in various colorways. Please check the product listings for the specific color options and sizes currently offered.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Adjust the lacing pattern. For a tighter fit, ensure laces are pulled evenly. For a looser feel, slacken the laces, especially around the midfoot. Consult sizing guides if persistent issues occur.

Discomfort in the arch area

The Arch-Lock support may require a break-in period. If discomfort persists, consider using aftermarket insoles designed for additional arch support or cushioning.

Mesh appears dirty or stained

Use a soft brush with a mixture of water and mild soap. Gently scrub the affected area and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Allow to air dry.

Reduced cushioning after extended use

The EVA midsole is designed for comfort but will naturally compress over time. For continued comfort, consider replacing the shoes after significant wear or explore adding supportive insoles.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Authentic retro design appealing to Y2K enthusiasts.
  • Breathable mesh upper for comfort in warmer conditions.
  • Supportive elements like the internal cage and TPU heel cup.
  • Durable EVA midsole provides consistent cushioning.
  • Versatile styling suitable for both athletic and casual wear.

Cons

  • Open mesh may not offer sufficient protection in cold or wet weather.
  • The removed side river logo might be a detractor for some who prefer traditional branding.
  • Solely focused on aesthetics and general comfort, not high-performance running.
  • Specific fit may vary; potential for less structured support compared to modern performance trainers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no assembly. Simply unbox and wear. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and fit.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult wear across various genders, these trainers are designed for general use and can be paired with a wide range of casual and athletic attire. They are not specifically designed for compatibility with specialized sports equipment.

Care: To maintain the condition of your ProGrid Paramount trainers:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or cloth dampened with water and mild soap to gently clean the open mesh and fabric areas. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Midsole and Outsole: Wipe down the EVA midsole and rubber outsole with a damp cloth.
  3. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, which can damage the materials.
  4. Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning if necessary. Machine wash on a gentle cycle or hand wash.
