FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are designed primarily for all-day wear, casual use, and light activities. While they offer good cushioning, they may not provide the specialized support and stability required for serious or long-distance running.
What is the main benefit of the Fresh Foam X midsole?
The Fresh Foam X midsole provides exceptional, lightweight cushioning that enhances comfort during extended periods of wear and helps absorb impact.
How do I clean the mesh upper without damaging it?
Use a soft cloth or brush with a mild soap and water solution. Gently wipe the mesh area and rinse with a clean damp cloth. Always air dry.
What does the CAYL collaboration add?
The collaboration with CAYL brings a unique design aesthetic, featuring a specific color palette, custom tongue, and insoles with a distinctive logo pattern, setting these trainers apart from standard models.
Can these trainers be worn by men and women?
Yes, these trainers are designed with a unisex fit, making them suitable for adults of any gender.
How durable are the synthetic overlays?
The synthetic overlays are designed to add structure and support to the upper, contributing to the overall durability and longevity of the trainers by protecting high-wear areas.
What is the best way to store these trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe tree or placing them in their original box can help maintain their shape and protect them from dust.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels incorrect
Ensure you have tried them on with the type of socks you typically wear. Consult the brand's sizing chart and compare with your foot measurement. If still unsure, consider trying a half-size up or down if available.
Discomfort after prolonged wear
While designed for comfort, individual foot shapes vary. Ensure the laces are adjusted properly for a snug but not overly tight fit. Break them in gradually with shorter wear periods before committing to all-day use.
Mesh material appears to be snagging
Be mindful of sharp objects or rough surfaces that could catch on the ripstop mesh. If a snag occurs, try to gently pull it back into place. Avoid excessive force. For minor snags, they may not affect the overall integrity.
Color transfer from darker sections
In damp conditions or with initial wear, some minimal color transfer from the black synthetic overlays to lighter socks might occur. This typically reduces with wear. Avoid prolonged exposure to excessive moisture.

Care Instructions:
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the ripstop mesh and synthetic overlays with a slightly damp cloth. For more stubborn dirt, use a mild soap and water solution, applying it with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a damp cloth to wipe down the Fresh Foam X midsole and rubber outsole. A soft brush can help remove dirt from textured areas.
- Laces: Remove laces and hand wash them separately with mild detergent if needed.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
