FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?
The Runfalcon 3.0 is designed for versatility and everyday comfort, making it ideal for light runs and walks. For marathon training, which involves high mileage and impact, specialized long-distance running shoes with advanced cushioning and support are generally recommended.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and the shoe should feel snug but not constricting around the midfoot.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap instead.
What does 'midsole drop' mean?
Midsole drop refers to the difference in height between the heel and the forefoot of the shoe's sole. A 10mm drop, as found in the Runfalcon 3.0, indicates a moderate drop that can suit a variety of running styles.
How much do the shoes weigh?
The Runfalcon 3.0 trainers weigh approximately 286 grams for a UK size 8.5, contributing to a lightweight feel during wear.
What is the benefit of the recycled content in the upper?
Using recycled materials in the upper reduces the reliance on virgin resources and helps minimize plastic waste, contributing to a more sustainable product lifecycle.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not over-tightened. If the issue persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if the break-in period is needed.
Slipping sensation
Ensure the laces are tied securely. Check that the outsole is clean from dirt or debris that could reduce traction. The shoe might be a size too large.
Discomfort during runs
Verify the lacing is adjusted for proper support. For longer or more intense runs, consider if these trainers provide adequate cushioning and support for your specific needs.
Upper feels stiff
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the textile upper to break in and adapt to your foot shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: The Runfalcon 3.0 is designed as a unisex adult trainer. It is compatible with standard sock wear. The versatile design makes it suitable for a wide range of casual and light athletic activities.
Care: To maintain the quality and appearance of your trainers:
- Cleaning: Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and grime from the upper and midsole. For stubborn stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
- Lining: The textile lining can be gently cleaned with a slightly damp cloth. Ensure no moisture penetrates excessively into the shoe.
- Outsole: Periodically check the rubber outsole for any debris that might affect grip and clean as needed.
