FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are designed for walking and casual everyday wear. While they offer good cushioning, they may not provide the specific support and stability required for high-impact activities like running.
How do I know if I have the correct size?
Refer to the UK men's sizing chart. It is recommended to try them on if possible, as foot shape can vary. The flexible nature of the shoe offers some adaptability.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing the insoles and spot cleaning the upper with a damp cloth is the preferred method to maintain their structure and materials.
Are the stretch laces adjustable?
The laces are designed as no-tie stretch laces for convenience and a snug fit. They are not intended to be adjusted like traditional laces.
What does 'Vegan Construction' mean?
It means that no animal-derived materials or by-products were used in the manufacturing of these trainers.
How does the Heel Pillow work?
The Heel Pillow is a design feature that creates a comfortable and secure fit around the heel, preventing slippage and adding extra cushioning for comfort.
Are these waterproof?
No, the engineered mesh upper is breathable but not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure the heel pillow is fully pulled back and that the foot is relaxed. Try wearing thin socks initially to help the foot slide in more easily.
Insole feels flat or less cushioned over time
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam may compress slightly with use. Try removing and airing out the insoles. If cushioning is significantly reduced, consider replacement insoles.
Mesh upper appears dirty or stained
Gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh scrubbing which can damage the mesh. For stubborn stains, consult specific mesh cleaning guides.
Shoes feel too tight after wearing
The stretch laces provide a snug fit. If they feel too tight, ensure your socks are not too thick. For a looser feel, try gently stretching the shoe when not in use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:
Designed for adult males. The sizing is based on UK men's shoe sizes. The vegan materials and standard construction make them compatible with most casual outfits.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the engineered mesh. For stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean damp cloth.
