FAQs
Are the Clarks Pace Trainers suitable for running?
The Clarks Pace Trainers are specifically designed and scientifically backed for the performance activity of walking. While they offer excellent cushioning and support, they are not optimized for the higher impact and different biomechanics of running.
What makes the 'Infinity Energy Capsules™' special?
These capsules are embedded in the sole and are engineered to compress and then rebound with each step, actively helping to propel you forward and reduce the effort required for walking.
How do I clean my Clarks Pace Trainers?
Clean the trainers using a soft, damp cloth. For tougher dirt, a mild soap solution can be applied sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Always air dry them naturally.
Is there a specific way to lace them for best performance?
Standard lacing techniques that provide a snug and secure fit around the foot and ankle will work best. Ensure the heel counter feels locked in without excessive pressure.
What is the C360 Foam™?
C360 Foam™ is Clarks’ most advanced two-part foam technology used in the dual-layer sole. It is designed to provide exceptional cushioning while simultaneously stabilizing your stride.
Do I really need to break them in?
No, the Clarks Pace Trainers are designed to provide instant comfort right out of the box, thanks to features like the S-curve moulded heel counter. There is no break-in period needed.
What surfaces are these trainers best used on?
These trainers are ideal for pavements, light trails, and general walking surfaces. Their design maximizes efficiency and comfort for walking-specific activities.
Troubleshooting
Slight stiffness on first wear
Although designed for no break-in, a very short period of gentle walking can help the materials fully conform to your foot shape.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
Ensure the shoes are clean and dry. Excessive dirt or moisture can impact the performance of the foam and energy capsules. Consider if the shoes have reached the end of their expected lifespan for intense use.
Heel slipping
Ensure laces are tied correctly to secure the foot. The S-curve heel counter should provide a snug fit; if slipping persists, double-check the shoe size or consider thicker socks.
