FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running sports?
These are lifestyle retro-running trainers. They are excellent for daily activity and walking but are not designed for competitive track or field sports.
How do I determine the right size for a child?
This model follows standard UK sizing for children. Ensure there is about a half-inch of space between the longest toe and the front of the shoe for proper growth room.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can compromise the adhesives and the memory foam structure. Hand cleaning is best.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, they are made from nylon and are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or light weather conditions.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is constructed from nylon, which provides a balance of lightness, durability, and breathability.
Troubleshooting
Insole feels flat or loses comfort
Remove the insole, let it air out for 24 hours to recover its shape, or replace it with a standard athletic insert if needed.
Outer material shows light scuffs
Use a specialized nylon-safe cleaner or a gentle wipe-down with a damp microfiber cloth to buff out superficial marks.
Laces coming undone frequently
Consider a double knot or replacing the laces with a slightly more textured set if the factory laces feel too slippery.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Le Coq Sportif Astra 2 trainers last, follow these maintenance tips:
- Cleaning: Wipe the nylon surface with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft-bristled brush, but avoid saturating the material.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can damage the memory foam and EVA components.
- Laces: The included poly/cotton laces are durable but can be replaced if they show signs of fraying. Ensure they are knotted correctly to prevent tripping.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup within the polyester lining.
