FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are primarily designed for walking and casual wear. While they offer good cushioning, they may not provide the specific support and stability required for intense running activities.
How often should I machine wash these trainers?
It is recommended to machine wash them only when necessary to maintain their longevity and cushioning. Over-washing can degrade the materials. Follow the care instructions precisely.
What is the benefit of the dual-density heel pillow?
The dual-density heel pillow offers targeted cushioning at the heel, absorbing impact and providing extra comfort and support with every step, reducing strain on the heel.
Can I wear these with socks?
Yes, you can wear these trainers with socks. However, they are also designed for comfortable wear without socks due to their soft lining and breathable materials.
How do I know if the Arch Fit system is right for me?
The Arch Fit system is designed for enhanced comfort and stability, benefiting many users by improving foot alignment. If you experience foot fatigue or discomfort from lack of arch support, this system may be beneficial. It is always advisable to consult a foot care professional if you have specific concerns.
What does 'slip-in' mean for these trainers?
'Slip-in' refers to the design that allows you to easily slide your foot into the shoe without needing to untie laces or bend over. The heel counter is structured to facilitate this ease of entry.
Troubleshooting
Slightly tight fit initially
The trainers may feel snug at first due to the Arch Fit design. Wear them for short periods to allow the materials to mold to your foot shape. Avoid machine washing immediately.
Reduced cushioning after washing
Ensure the trainers are air-dried completely. Exposure to high heat from a dryer can damage the cushioning materials. If the issue persists, consider the natural wear of the cushioning.
Arch support feels uncomfortable
The Arch Fit system is designed for optimal support. If you are not accustomed to this level of support or have very flat feet, it may take time to adjust. Try wearing them for shorter durations initially.
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure the heel collar is fully open and try sliding your foot in smoothly. Avoid forcing your foot, as this can damage the shoe. The material will become more flexible with use.
