FAQs
Are these trainers fully waterproof?
No, the Regatta Blaze Trainers feature Hydropel water-resistant technology, meaning they are designed to repel water and keep your feet dry in light rain and splashes. They are not fully waterproof and are not recommended for submersion or heavy downpours.
What kind of activities are these trainers best suited for?
These trainers are versatile and ideal for a range of active pursuits, including gym workouts, running, light trail walking, and general outdoor adventures. Their comfort and traction make them suitable for various terrains and intensities.
How do I clean my Regatta Blaze Trainers?
For the upper, wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. For the outsole, brush off dirt and rinse with water. Always air dry away from direct heat. Regular cleaning helps maintain their appearance and performance.
What is the 'XLT midsole'?
The XLT midsole is a cushioning technology designed by Regatta to provide excellent heel strike cushioning. This helps to absorb impact effectively, reducing stress on your feet and joints during high-intensity activities.
How does the speed lace fastening system work?
The speed lace system uses a toggle and durable laces for quick and easy adjustments. You simply pull the toggle to tighten the laces for a secure fit, and push it to release tension and loosen them, allowing for fast on and off.
What materials are used in the trainers?
The upper is made from breathable nylon ripstop, providing durability and ventilation. The cushioning system includes a moulded open foam insock and an XLT midsole, while the outsole is constructed from lightweight, slip-resistant rubber. The general material_clothing attribute lists Polyester.
Can I use these trainers for long-distance running?
While designed with excellent cushioning and support suitable for running, the suitability for long-distance running can vary by individual preference and foot type. Many users find them comfortable for regular runs, but for marathon distances, some might prefer more specialized footwear.
Troubleshooting
My feet feel damp in wet weather.
The trainers feature Hydropel water-resistant technology, designed to repel light rain and splashes. They are not fully waterproof. For heavy downpours or submerged conditions, consider footwear specifically designed for full waterproofing.
The speed laces feel too loose or too tight.
Adjust the toggle on the speed lace system. To tighten, pull the toggle towards the front of the shoe. To loosen, gently push the toggle away from the shoe while pulling the laces through until you achieve a comfortable and secure fit.
I'm experiencing some slipping on certain surfaces.
While the lightweight rubber outsole is designed to be slip-resistant, no footwear can guarantee absolute traction on all surfaces, especially wet, icy, or extremely uneven ones. Always exercise caution. Check the outsole for excessive wear, which might reduce its grip.

Care: Maintaining Your Trainers
To ensure the longevity and performance of your Regatta Blaze Trainers, follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the breathable nylon ripstop upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean.
- Cleaning the Outsole: Brush off any mud or dirt from the rubber outsole using a stiff brush. You can also rinse it with water.
- Drying: Allow your trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Water-Resistant Treatment: Over time, the Hydropel water-resistant technology may benefit from reapplication of a suitable footwear water-repellent spray, especially after washing. Follow the product instructions for any such sprays.
