FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathons?
While the Questar 3 is excellent for daily training and shorter distances, marathon runners might prefer higher-end energy return tech for longer efforts.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
Yes, their stable build and cushioned midsole make them suitable for treadmill work and general gym training.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for stains. Air dry only.
Is the sizing true to size?
The Questar 3 generally follows standard athletic sizing; however, since sizing can vary, it is recommended to ensure your heel is secure with minimal slipping.
What does the 5mm drop mean?
It refers to the height difference between the heel (29mm) and the forefoot (24mm), favoring a flatter, more natural strike.
Troubleshooting
Feeling lace pressure on the bridge of the foot
Try a different lacing technique, such as the window lacing method, to relieve pressure on the high-contact areas.
Outsole losing traction in wet conditions
Ensure the rubber grooves are free of embedded pebbles or debris, which can hinder grip on slick surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your Questar 3s, ensure the laces are tightened evenly across the bridge of the foot to avoid pressure points. These trainers are optimized for paved surfaces and treadmills. To maintain the life of the materials, avoid machine washing; instead, spot clean with a soft brush and mild soap. If the shoes become damp from rain or sweat, remove the insoles and stuff the interior with newspaper to allow for gradual air drying, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent midsole warping.
