FAQs
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the leather upper offers some water resistance but is not fully waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
It is strongly advised not to machine wash these trainers, especially due to the leather upper and Boost technology, as it can cause damage.
How do I break in the leather upper?
Wear the trainers for short periods initially. The leather will naturally mold to your foot shape over time, providing a more comfortable fit.
What is the main benefit of Boost technology?
Boost technology provides exceptional energy return, meaning it absorbs impact and then propels you forward, making each step feel lighter and more responsive.
Are these suitable for serious marathon running?
While comfortable and responsive, these trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and light athletic activities. For serious marathon running, dedicated performance running shoes might offer more specialized features.
How do I care for the black leather?
Wipe with a damp cloth and use a dedicated leather cleaner for stains. Condition periodically to keep the leather supple. Always air dry.
What does 'Core Black' refer to?
'Core Black' refers to the primary colorway of the trainers, indicating a predominantly black design.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears creased or scuffed
Lightly buff scuffs with a soft cloth. For deeper creases, use a leather conditioner and allow to dry naturally. Avoid bending the shoe sharply during wear.
Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces
While the Continental™ outsole offers good grip, extreme wet conditions can still be challenging. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. Consider specialized footwear for very wet or icy conditions.
Boost midsole losing some 'bounce'
Ensure the midsole is clean. Over time, wear and tear will naturally affect the responsiveness. Regular cleaning can help maintain its performance for longer.
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure the correct size is being worn. Break in the shoes with short periods of wear initially. Check socks for any seams that might cause friction.
