FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, because these trainers feature leather materials, machine washing can damage the finish and structural integrity. Manual cleaning is recommended.
Are they suitable for trail running?
The Ultraboost 20 is primarily designed for road and track surfaces. They may lack the specific lug depth required for technical trail terrain.
How do I determine my correct size?
We recommend measuring your foot length and comparing it against the UK sizing chart. This model is currently available in various sizes from 7.5 to 12 UK.
Can I replace the insole?
Yes, the insole is removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required for additional arch support.
Does the blue color fade over time?
Like any pigmented material, prolonged direct sun exposure can lead to minor fading. Keeping them stored indoors when not in use helps maintain the vibrancy.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight across the midfoot
Adjust the lace tension by loosening the eyelets starting from the bottom of the lacing system to allow for better expansion.
Visible dirt on leather upper
Use a specialized leather cleaning solution applied with a microfiber cloth; avoid heavy saturation of the material.
Slippage during intense activity
Ensure the heel is fully seated in the back of the shoe and use a 'runner's loop' lacing technique to lock the ankle in place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal comfort, ensure your size is correctly selected, such as the UK 12 variant, allowing for natural toe splay. For care, avoid machine washing these leather trainers. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface debris and a damp cloth with mild leather cleaner for localized spots. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to prevent the leather from cracking.
