FAQs
How do I ensure the best fit with slip-ins?
The slip-ins are designed to conform to your foot. Ensure you select your standard shoe size. The Heel Pillow™ helps secure the foot once it's inside.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are best suited for walking, casual wear, and light training. They may not offer the specific support and cushioning required for intense running activities.
Can I put these trainers in the dryer?
No, it is not recommended to put these trainers in a machine dryer. High heat can damage the materials. Always air dry them.
What does 'vegan' mean for these shoes?
It means the shoes are constructed using only synthetic and textile materials, without any animal-derived components.
How do the non-functional laces work?
The stretch laces are primarily for aesthetic appeal, contributing to the sporty look of the trainers. The secure fit is achieved through the slip-in design and the Heel Pillow™.
What is the Glide-Step® midsole feature?
The Glide-Step® midsole is engineered to provide a smooth transition through your stride and offers lightweight, responsive cushioning for enhanced comfort.
How often should I wash my trainers?
Wash your trainers as needed when they appear dirty or have an odor. Frequent washing, especially on harsh cycles, could potentially impact their lifespan.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure the Heel Pillow™ is not obstructed. Try slightly angling your foot as you slide it in. If the shoe is new, it may need a short break-in period.
Foot feels unsupported during activity
These trainers are designed for comfort and casual use. For higher-impact activities, consider a shoe with more specialized support features.
Reduced cushioning over time
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole may lose some of its initial loft. Ensure proper care and avoid excessive heat which can degrade foam.
Shoes retain odor
Ensure shoes are completely dry after washing or wearing. Use a shoe deodorizer spray or baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.
