FAQs
What makes the iQushion™ technology special?
iQushion™ technology features ergonomically engineered cushioning that provides responsive support, promotes natural foot movement, optimizes body alignment, and enhances energy return for all-day comfort.
How do I clean the mixed nylon and suede upper?
Gently wipe the nylon with a damp cloth. For suede, use a suede brush to maintain its texture. Avoid soaking the materials in water and allow them to air dry.
Are these trainers suitable for athletic running?
These trainers are designed for everyday use and comfort. While they offer good grip for daily activities, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact athletic running.
What does Scotchgard™ protection do?
Scotchgard™ protection helps repel liquids and stains, making the trainers more resistant to water and easier to clean, thus prolonging their appearance and durability.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
The Scotchgard™ protection offers some resistance to light moisture and stains. However, they are not waterproof and prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended.
What is the main style inspiration for the Retro-Q trainers?
The Retro-Q trainers are modelled on old-school sneakers from the 1980s, incorporating vintage styling with modern comfort features.
Troubleshooting
Slight stiffness on first wear
The trainers are designed to flex with natural movement. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to mold to your foot shape.
Suede appears dull or stained
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap. For stubborn stains, refer to specialized suede cleaning products and methods, keeping the Scotchgard™ protection in mind.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
The iQushion™ technology is designed for durability. If cushioning seems reduced, ensure the shoes are clean and dry. Excessive wear and tear may eventually impact performance.
