Full details
The FitFlop Retro-Q trainers are designed for adult women seeking a blend of sporty seventies style with modern comfort. Their key benefit is the ultra-lightweight Anatomicush? midsole, offering exceptional cushioning and support. A potential caveat is the mixed fabric and suede upper, which may require specific care for longevity. These trainers feature a retro silhouette inspired by 80s designs, constructed from lightweight nylon with suede accents for textural contrast. Advanced iQushion™ technology ensures responsive support for natural movement and alignment, making them suitable for everyday wear.

FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and light activity. While they offer good cushioning and support, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact running.
How do I clean the metallic fabric parts?
For the metallic fabric, use a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the finish.
What is the heel height?
The FitFlop Retro-Q trainers have a flat heel design, offering a low profile for comfortable wear.
Do these trainers offer arch support?
Yes, they are ergonomically engineered with natural arch support to promote proper foot alignment and comfort.
How do I know if I have the correct size?
Refer to the sizing guide and measure your foot. The trainers should feel snug but not tight, with enough room in the toe box. The lace-up closure allows for adjustability.
Is the Scotchgard™ protection permanent?
Scotchgard™ protection provides an initial level of resistance to stains and moisture. Its effectiveness may diminish over time with wear and cleaning. Regular care helps maintain its properties.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight upon first wear.
The lightweight nylon upper is designed to be flexible. Wear them around the house for a short period to allow them to conform to your foot shape. Ensure laces are not over-tightened.
Suede areas appear dirty or scuffed.
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher marks, use a suede eraser. Always brush in one direction after cleaning.
Reduced cushioning after prolonged use.
While Anatomicush? and iQushion™ are designed for durability, prolonged heavy use can eventually affect cushioning. Ensure you are following care instructions to maintain the integrity of the materials. Consider rotating with other footwear.
