FAQs
Do these trainers run true to size?
No, this specific model tends to run small. It is recommended to order one size larger than your typical shoe size.
How do I adjust the shoe width?
The lacing system allows you to adjust the tightness and width of the shoe. Loosen or tighten the laces as needed across the midfoot and forefoot to achieve a comfortable and secure fit.
Can I use these for everyday walking?
Yes, the cushioning and support make them suitable for general wear and walking, especially if you encounter uneven surfaces. However, they are optimized for trail running.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is made from a combination of synthetic and textile materials, which are durable and easy to clean.
How should I clean my trail running trainers?
Wipe the upper with a damp cloth and use a brush to clean the sole. Allow them to air dry naturally and avoid direct heat sources.
Are these trainers waterproof?
This particular model is not specified as waterproof. For waterproof options, you may need to look for variants with GORE-TEX technology.
What kind of terrain are these best suited for?
They are best suited for soft, muddy, or uneven terrain like trails, offering good grip and stability.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or small.
This is a common note for this model. Try ordering one full size larger than your usual. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly.
Traction is reduced on wet surfaces.
Ensure the outsole is clean of mud and debris. While designed for grip, extreme wet conditions may still present challenges. Consider specific wet-weather trail shoes if this is a frequent issue.
Heel feels unstable.
Check the lacing to ensure the heel is properly locked down. Make sure the shoe is the correct size; a shoe that is too large can lead to heel slippage.
Discomfort after a run.
Ensure the shoes are broken in sufficiently. Adjust lacing to relieve pressure points. Consider if the terrain run on is suitable for the shoe's design.
