FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The RETRO-Q trainers are designed for everyday comfort and walking. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact running and may not provide the necessary support for serious athletic training.
How do I clean the mixed materials?
Clean the nylon sections with a damp cloth. For suede, use a suede brush for dry dirt and a specialized cleaner for stains. Avoid getting the suede excessively wet.
What does 'Scotchgard™ protected' mean for the trainers?
Scotchgard™ protection helps repel water and resist stains, making the trainers easier to clean and more durable for everyday wear. This protection may need reapplication over time.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
The Scotchgard™ protection offers some resistance to water and stains, making them suitable for light, intermittent wet conditions. However, they are not waterproof and prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended.
What is the main benefit of the iQushion™ technology?
iQushion™ technology provides advanced, responsive cushioning that supports natural body movement and alignment, enhancing comfort and reducing fatigue during daily wear.
Are there other color options available?
Yes, the RETRO-Q series is available in various colorways and material combinations. Please check the product listings for available options.
What is the intended audience for these trainers?
These trainers are designed for adult women looking for comfortable, stylish footwear for casual, everyday use.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise from shoes
This can sometimes happen with new shoes due to friction between components. Try powdering the inside of the shoe with talcum powder or baking soda. If it persists, contact customer support.
Discoloration on suede
Use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner. For water stains, allow the shoe to dry naturally away from heat, then brush with a suede brush.
Reduced cushioning over time
While iQushion™ is durable, prolonged heavy use can impact cushioning. Ensure the shoes are cleaned regularly and avoid excessive wear. If significant degradation occurs, it may be time to consider replacement.
Uncomfortable fit
Ensure you have the correct size. Break in new shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods. If discomfort persists, especially due to the arch support, these may not be the right fit for your foot shape.
