FAQs

Are the Karhu Legacy 96 suitable for running marathons?

The Karhu Legacy 96 are designed for everyday comfort and light trail use, not for professional marathon running. For marathon training and racing, specialized running shoes with advanced performance features would be more appropriate.

How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Gently brush off dry dirt with a soft suede brush. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product instructions. Always allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat.

Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, particularly the suede and the cushioning technology. Hand cleaning is the preferred method.

What is the purpose of the Air Cushion heel?

The Air Cushion heel is designed to provide superior shock absorption and cushioning, reducing impact on your feet and joints during wear.

Do these trainers come in different widths?

The Karhu Legacy 96 typically comes in a standard width. If you have wider feet, it is often recommended to consider sizing up for a more comfortable fit.

How durable is the rubber outsole?

The rubber outsole is designed for durability and provides excellent traction for everyday wear and light outdoor activities. Its longevity will depend on usage intensity and surface conditions.

What is the recommended use for the Karhu Legacy 96?

These trainers are best suited for casual everyday wear, walking, and light trail use. They offer a blend of style, comfort, and practicality for various non-strenuous activities.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears discolored or stained.

Use a specialized suede cleaner and a suede brush. Always test cleaner on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to air dry completely.

Reduced cushioning over time.

While the Air Cushion technology is durable, consistent heavy use may lead to some natural compression. Ensure you are using them for intended purposes (everyday wear, light trails) and not extreme athletic activities.

Poor grip on wet surfaces.

The rubber outsole provides good traction, but performance on extremely slick or wet surfaces can be reduced. Clean the outsole regularly to ensure optimal grip. Consider that these are not specialized wet-weather footwear.

Mesh feels less breathable after cleaning.

Ensure the mesh is completely dry before wearing. Avoid using harsh detergents that can clog the mesh pores. Allow them to air dry naturally.
