FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While inspired by a running shoe, the Ghostsprint is primarily designed for casual wear and style. For serious athletic running, dedicated performance running shoes are recommended.

How do I clean the gum sole?

The rubber gum sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Wipe clean with a dry cloth afterwards.

What material is the lining made of?

The lining is made of textile material, designed for comfort and breathability.

Can these trainers be worn by both men and women?

Yes, these are unisex trainers, designed to be worn by anyone regardless of gender.

How should I store my Ghostsprint trainers when not in use?

It is best to store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape.

What is the primary material of the shoe?

The primary upper material is premium suede, with suede overlays for added detail and durability.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a suede brush to gently remove loose dirt. For stains, apply a small amount of specialized suede cleaner with a clean cloth and blot gently. Allow to air dry completely.

Trainers feel too tight

Wear thicker socks for a short period to stretch the material slightly. Ensure the laces are loosened properly during wear.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur with new rubber soles. Try walking on different surfaces or ensure the sole is clean. If persistent, insert a powder (like talc) under the insole if removable.

Water damage to suede

Immediately blot excess water with a dry cloth. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the nap. Consider using a suede protector spray for future prevention.
