FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The standard fit is designed for average foot widths. While the lacing system allows for some adjustment, individuals with significantly wide feet may find them snug. Trying them on is recommended.

How do I clean mud off the GORE-TEX upper?

Gently brush off dry mud with a soft brush. For remaining dirt, use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap and water. Rinse the cloth and wipe again, then allow the shoes to air dry completely.

What is the main advantage of ReactX foam?

ReactX foam offers improved energy return compared to previous React foam and significantly reduces the carbon footprint associated with midsole production, making it a more sustainable and responsive option.

Can I wear these shoes in everyday casual conditions?

Yes, the trainers are designed for versatility and can be worn for everyday activities, offering comfort and waterproof protection. However, their primary design is for running.

How does the high ankle cuff help?

The high ankle cuff is designed to prevent trail debris like small stones, twigs, and mud from entering the shoe, keeping your feet cleaner and more comfortable during runs on technical terrain.

What is the expected lifespan of the GORE-TEX waterproofing?

The GORE-TEX membrane is designed for long-term durability. Proper care and cleaning will help maintain its waterproof and breathable properties over the lifespan of the shoe.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel wet despite GORE-TEX upper

Ensure the shoe is properly laced and the tongue is positioned correctly to prevent water ingress. Check for any damage to the GORE-TEX material or seams. If water is coming from the top, consider socks that also offer water resistance or adjust lacing.

Reduced grip on slippery surfaces

Clean the outsole to remove embedded mud or debris. The generative traction pattern is designed for a variety of conditions, but extreme mud buildup can impact performance. Inspect the tread for excessive wear.

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure you have the correct size and width. Try adjusting the lacing system to distribute pressure differently. Consider wearing them for shorter periods initially to allow your feet to adapt.

Midsole feels less responsive over time

While ReactX foam is durable, its responsiveness may subtly decrease with very high mileage. Ensure the shoes are not exposed to extreme heat, which can degrade foam properties. Clean the shoes regularly to prevent dirt buildup affecting performance.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof protection for all-weather running.
  • Responsive ReactX foam provides superior energy return.
  • Eco-friendly design with a reduced carbon footprint.
  • Durable construction suitable for various terrains.
  • Versatile enough for both trail and road running.

Cons

  • The high ankle cuff may feel restrictive for some runners.
  • Waterproof uppers can sometimes reduce breathability in warmer conditions.
  • Specific fit may not suit all foot shapes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup beyond ensuring they are the correct size for your feet. Lace them up to your preferred tightness using the standard lacing system.

Compatibility: Designed for adult female runners. Compatible with standard running socks. Suitable for use on a wide range of surfaces including trails, gravel, and pavement.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: After use, allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Brush off loose dirt and mud with a dry brush. For tougher stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Do not machine wash.
  2. Waterproofing: The GORE-TEX membrane is durable, but avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade its performance. Clean the upper gently to maintain its integrity.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
