FAQs
Are the Motion Trek MX trainers suitable for running or sports?
The Motion Trek MX is a performance-enhanced trainer primarily designed for effortless, everyday casual wear and walking. While it offers comfort and support, it is not specifically engineered for high-impact running or specialized athletic sports.
Is the knit upper waterproof?
The engineered knit upper is designed for breathability and flexibility, which is excellent for comfort. However, it is not specified as waterproof and may not protect against heavy rain or puddles.
What is Motion Tread Technology?
Motion Tread Technology is an innovative feature that works with a rocker heel to power your forward motion and support your foot's natural walking mechanics, helping to optimize every step you take.
How do I ensure the best fit?
The Motion Trek MX features a lace closure system, allowing you to adjust the laces for a secure and custom fit. Ensure your foot feels snug but not constricted, and that your toes have enough room to move.
How should I clean my Motion Trek MX trainers?
For the engineered knit upper, gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Clean the rubber outsole with a stiff brush to remove dirt. Always air dry away from direct heat.
Do these shoes offer arch support?
The ultra-lightweight EVA midsole is designed to absorb impact and provide cushioning, contributing to overall foot comfort and support. While not explicitly advertised as an 'arch support' shoe, the cushioning and Motion Tread Technology work together for a comfortable walking experience.
What kind of traction can I expect?
The Motion Trek MX features a grippy rubber outsole, which provides excellent traction on common surfaces such as pavement, sidewalks, and indoor floors, enhancing stability during your walks.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the lace closure. The Motion Trek MX features a lace-up design allowing for a custom fit. Ensure laces are evenly tightened and not overly restrictive or too loose.
Feet feel hot or sweaty.
The engineered knit upper is designed for breathability. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks (e.g., moisture-wicking materials) and allow shoes to air out between wears. If the issue persists, consider trying different sock materials.
Reduced traction on certain surfaces.
Check the grippy rubber outsole for dirt, mud, or debris lodged in the treads. Clean the outsole thoroughly with a brush and water to restore maximum grip. Avoid extremely slippery surfaces if traction is a primary concern.
Experiencing discomfort after long walks.
While designed for comfort, ensure the shoes are the correct size and fit for your feet. The ultra-lightweight EVA midsole provides impact absorption, but individual foot types and walking styles vary. Consider pairing with supportive insoles if persistent discomfort occurs, though these shoes are generally well-cushioned.

Care & Maintenance
Proper care extends the life and maintains the appearance of your Motion Trek MX trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: For the engineered knit upper, gently wipe away dirt and stains with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes.
- Cleaning the Outsole: Use a stiff brush (like an old toothbrush) to remove dirt and debris from the rubber outsole for maintaining optimal traction.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Stuffing with newspaper can help maintain shape and absorb excess moisture.
- Avoid Submersion: Do not machine wash or fully submerge the shoes in water, as this can damage the materials and construction.
