FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The CT302 trainers offer a standard fit. While the laces allow for some adjustment, individuals with significantly wide feet may find them snug. It is recommended to try them on if possible or check specific sizing guides for width recommendations.
What is the best way to clean the white leather?
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For tougher marks, a mild soap solution or a dedicated leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
Can these trainers be worn for light exercise?
The CT302 trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and offer good comfort and traction for everyday activities. They are not engineered for high-impact sports or intense athletic training.
How do I know if I have the correct size?
Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. Your heel should feel secure without slipping excessively when you walk.
What is the main difference between the white and green colorways?
The primary difference is the color accent. The 'White/Green' variant features green accents on a predominantly white shoe, while other colorways may offer different combinations or monochromatic designs.
Do these trainers offer arch support?
The CT302 trainers provide standard cushioning. They do not feature specialized arch support features. Individuals requiring significant arch support might consider using custom or over-the-counter insoles.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and readjust for a more comfortable fit. If still too tight, consider if the size is appropriate for your foot width.
Squeaking noise when walking
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try wearing them for a short period to break them in. Ensure laces are not tied excessively tight.
Discoloration on leather
Consult the care instructions. Light discoloration may be removable with a damp cloth, but severe issues might require a professional leather cleaner.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the rubber sole is clean. While designed for traction, extremely smooth or wet surfaces can still pose a slip risk. The grip will improve as the shoes are broken in.
