FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the Karhu Legacy 96 Trainers?

The Karhu Legacy 96 Trainers are designed as comfortable, everyday sneakers that honor Karhu's sports footwear heritage. They are ideal for casual wear and light outdoor activities.

How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a specialized suede brush for dry dirt. For stains, apply a suede cleaner as per product instructions, and always allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from heat.

Are these trainers suitable for running or intense sports?

While they offer good cushioning and support, the Legacy 96 is primarily designed for everyday comfort and casual wear, not high-intensity athletic performance.

What makes the cushioning stand out?

The trainers feature Karhu's Air Cushion heel technology for superior support and an EVA midsole for responsive, all-day comfort. The sublimated print on the footbed highlights this feature.

What is the benefit of the mesh material used?

The softly threaded, shiny mesh panels are incorporated for breathability, helping to keep your feet comfortable during extended wear.

Can I wear these trainers in wet conditions?

The rubber outsole provides good traction, but it is advisable to exercise caution on very wet or slippery surfaces, as with any footwear.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears discolored or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently lift dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product instructions carefully. Allow to air dry.

Reduced cushioning effectiveness

The Air Cushion heel and EVA midsole are designed for long-term comfort. If cushioning feels diminished, ensure the shoes are properly broken in and clean any debris from the outsole that might affect gait.

Traction seems poor on wet surfaces

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. While designed for good grip, wet surfaces inherently reduce traction for all footwear. Exercise caution.
