FAQs

What is iQushion™ technology?

iQushion™ is FitFlop's advanced cushioning technology designed to provide responsive support, enhance comfort, and promote natural body alignment and movement through ergonomic engineering.

Are these trainers waterproof?

The trainers feature Scotchgard™ protection, which helps repel water and stains, but they are not fully waterproof. It's advisable to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or immersion in water.

How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a suede brush or a suede eraser to clean the suede. For tougher marks, a specialized suede cleaner can be used, always following the product's instructions.

Can I wear these for intense athletic activities?

These trainers are designed for everyday comfort and walking. They are not intended for high-impact or strenuous athletic activities.

What is the main benefit of the retro styling?

The retro styling offers a classic, vintage aesthetic inspired by 70s and 80s sneakers, providing a fashionable look that pairs well with casual outfits.

What material is the main body of the trainer made from?

The main body is primarily crafted from lightweight nylon, which contributes to the shoe's flexibility and relaxed feel, combined with suede accents for textural contrast.

Do these trainers offer arch support?

Yes, the trainers are engineered with natural arch support as part of the iQushion™ technology to enhance comfort and body alignment.

Troubleshooting

Suede looking dull or scuffed

Use a dedicated suede brush or eraser to gently lift the nap and remove marks. For persistent dirt, consider a specialized suede cleaner.

Shoes feel too tight

Allow a break-in period of a few wears. If still uncomfortable, ensure you have the correct size, as these trainers are designed for a snug yet comfortable fit.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

While designed for everyday grip, performance on extremely wet surfaces may be reduced. Ensure the outsole is clean and free of debris for optimal traction.

Discoloration on nylon areas

Wipe with a damp cloth. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap and water solution, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Combines retro design with advanced comfort technology.
  • Lightweight nylon construction ensures flexibility and ease of movement.
  • iQushion™ technology offers significant ergonomic benefits and support.
  • Scotchgard™ protection adds durability and stain resistance.
  • Versatile style suitable for various casual outfits.

Cons

  • Mixed materials may require specific cleaning methods.
  • Vintage style might not appeal to all fashion preferences.
  • Primarily designed for everyday use, not high-performance athletic activities.
  • Suede elements can be susceptible to water damage if not properly cared for.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Compatibility is with casual wear and everyday outfits. Care instructions are crucial due to the mixed materials:

  • Cleaning: For the nylon and general exterior, use a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For suede sections, use a suede brush or eraser to address scuffs and marks. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  • Protection: To maintain the Scotchgard™ protection, reapply suitable protectant sprays periodically, following product instructions.
  • Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag to protect the materials.
