FAQs
What type of activities are these trainers best suited for?
The Pureboost 5 trainers are ideal for general training, gym workouts, treadmill running, and comfortable everyday wear due to their cushioning and lightweight design.
How do I clean the Engineered Mesh upper?
Gently wipe the mesh with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Rinse the cloth and wipe away any soap residue. Allow the shoes to air dry completely.
What is the midsole drop, and what does it mean for my run?
The midsole drop is 10mm (heel height 33mm, forefoot height 23mm). This is a moderate drop that offers a balance of cushioning and a natural foot feel, suitable for many runners.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers as it can damage the materials and construction. Hand wash using a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.
Do these trainers contain recycled materials?
Yes, the Pureboost 5 trainers contain at least 20% recycled content in their construction, contributing to sustainability efforts.
What is the weight of these trainers?
The trainers weigh approximately 270 grams for a size UK 8.5, making them a lightweight option for training.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The trainers have a regular fit. While the Engineered Mesh offers some adaptability, individuals with significantly wide feet might find them snug and should consider trying them on for fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not overtightened. If the issue persists, consider if the shoe width is suitable for your foot type. Removing the insole temporarily might provide a bit more room.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
The BOOST midsole is designed for longevity, but cushioning can feel reduced if the shoe is heavily worn or exposed to extreme conditions. Ensure the shoes are kept clean and dry. If significant wear is visible, it may be time to consider replacement.
Slipping during lateral movements
The Adiwear outsole provides good traction, but for very sharp or aggressive lateral movements, ensure the surface is clean and dry. If slipping persists, these shoes might be less suited for highly dynamic sports requiring extreme agility.
