FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The Karhu Legacy 96 Trainers are designed primarily for everyday wear and light athletic activities. While they offer good cushioning and support, they may not provide the specialized features required for intense or long-distance running.
How do I determine the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Karhu or the retailer. Measure your foot length and compare it to the chart. The UK size 10.5 is equivalent to a specific foot length.
Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash the Karhu Legacy 96 Trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, particularly the suede and mesh, and compromise the shoe's structure and cushioning.
What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Warranty information typically varies by retailer and region. Please check the product packaging or contact the place of purchase for specific warranty details.
How often should I re-apply suede protector?
It's generally recommended to re-apply suede protector every few months, or after cleaning the shoes, especially if they have been exposed to significant moisture or dirt.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
Yes, the Karhu Legacy 96 model is available in various colorways. Please check with retailers for the full range of available colors.
Troubleshooting
Initial tightness or discomfort
Wear the trainers for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Consider wearing thicker socks during the break-in phase. If discomfort persists, ensure you have the correct size.
Suede looking worn or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner following product instructions. Apply a suede protector spray regularly to prevent future staining.
Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces
While the rubber outsole offers good grip, exercise caution on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the outsole is free of debris that might affect traction.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt from the suede and mesh. For stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or soaking the shoes.
- Suede Care: For suede sections, consider using a specialized suede cleaner and protector spray to maintain their texture and color. Brush suede in one direction to restore its nap.
- Drying: Air dry the trainers naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or original box to protect from dust and damage.
