FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While they offer good cushioning and support, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers. For dedicated running, specific performance running shoes are recommended.

How do I clean the hairy suede parts?

Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and restore the nap. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner is advised, always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Can I wear these in the rain?

The trainers feature water-resistant Cordura and ripstop materials, offering protection against light moisture. They are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in water or worn in heavy downpours.

What does 'Protection Pack' signify?

The 'Protection Pack' designation refers to the use of durable, weather-resistant materials like Cordura and ripstop, along with a layered, deconstructed design inspired by rugged natural elements.

What is the primary benefit of the N-ergy outsole?

The N-ergy outsole is designed to provide reliable shock absorption, helping to reduce impact on your feet and joints, and ensuring a firm grip on various surfaces.

How does the Stability Web arch support function?

The Stability Web is integrated into the midsole to provide targeted support in the arch area, promoting a more stable and controlled stride.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears matted or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently restore the texture. For persistent marks, consider a specialized suede cleaner following product instructions.

Shoes feel stiff initially

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. The ACTEVA LITE midsole will soften with use.

Laces become worn

Replace laces with standard trainer laces. Ensure the length and type are appropriate for the eyelets.

Reduced water resistance over time

Consider using a fabric protector spray specifically designed for leather and synthetic materials to help maintain water repellency. Reapply as per product instructions.
