FAQs
What are the primary materials used in the upper?
The upper is constructed using a combination of real and synthetic leather, along with airy knits and mesh for a balance of durability and breathability.
How does the Tuned Air technology work?
Tuned Air technology uses strategically placed Max Air units in the forefoot and heel, designed to work with the cushioning system to provide a responsive and tailored feel with every step.
Can these trainers be worn for running?
These trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and urban exploration. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically built for the demands of high-impact running or athletic performance.
How do I clean the suede mudguard?
For the suede mudguard, use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth can be used gently, followed by air drying.
What is the purpose of the plastic arch on the midsole?
The plastic arch insert provides additional support and stability to the midfoot area, helping to prevent excessive twisting and enhancing the overall structure of the shoe.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The trainers are not waterproof. They are designed for general wear and offer some protection against light moisture, but should not be exposed to heavy rain or water.
Troubleshooting
Laces are difficult to adjust
Ensure the laces are threaded correctly through all eyelets and loops. Check that the toggle mechanism is clean and free of debris. If laces are tangled, untie them completely and re-thread.
Discomfort or pressure points
Re-adjust the lacing system, ensuring even pressure distribution. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Check for any small stones or debris trapped in the sole or upper.
Squeaking sound
This can sometimes occur between the outsole and midsole. Apply a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or around the edges of the sole where the squeak originates. Ensure the shoes are completely dry.
Upper materials feel stiff
Wear the shoes for short periods around the house to allow the materials to soften and mold to your foot shape. Avoid excessive force or bending of the shoes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently clean the leather and mesh components with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn dirt on leather, a mild leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the shoes.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a brush or damp cloth to remove dirt from the foam midsole and rubber outsole. Stubborn marks on the midsole can sometimes be removed with a magic eraser, used gently.
- Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning. Hand wash them or place them in a mesh bag and machine wash on a delicate cycle.
- Drying: Always air dry the trainers away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
