Full details
The FitFlop Retro-Q trainers are designed for adult women seeking a blend of retro sporty style and modern comfort. Their key benefit lies in the ultra-lightweight Anatomicush? midsole, offering exceptional cushioning for all-day wear. A potential caveat is their casual styling, which may not suit more formal occasions. These trainers feature a mixed fabric and suede construction for textural contrast, a lightweight nylon upper for a lived-in feel, and advanced iQushion™ technology for responsive support and natural alignment.

FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The FitFlop Retro-Q trainers are designed for casual wear and walking, offering excellent cushioning. They are not specifically designed for high-impact athletic activities like running.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by FitFlop. These trainers are available in UK adult women's sizes. It's recommended to measure your foot and compare it to the chart.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, especially due to the suede and mixed material construction. Hand washing or spot cleaning is the preferred method for care.
How often should I reapply the Scotchgard™ protection?
The frequency of reapplication depends on usage and environmental exposure. It is generally recommended to reapply every few months or after significant cleaning to maintain optimal protection.
What is the main difference between Anatomicush? and iQushion™ technology?
Anatomicush? refers to the ultra-lightweight midsole construction providing exceptional cushioning. iQushion™ technology focuses on the responsive support within the midsole that moves naturally with the foot, promoting alignment and energy.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The trainers feature Scotchgard™ protection, which offers resistance to water and stains, making them suitable for light moisture. They are not fully waterproof.
Troubleshooting
Laces are difficult to adjust
Ensure the laces are not tangled. If they feel stiff, gently work them back and forth. Consider replacing laces if they are worn.
Discomfort after initial wear
Allow a short break-in period of a few wears. Ensure the lacing provides a snug but not overly tight fit. Check for any internal seams or tags causing irritation.
Suede material looks dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove superficial dirt. For stubborn marks, use a dedicated suede cleaner according to product instructions.
Water marks appearing on the material
If water has stained the material, allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, use appropriate cleaning methods for the specific material (fabric or suede) and consider reapplying Scotchgard™ protector.
