FAQs

Are the Karhu Legacy 96 Trainers suitable for running?

While they offer good cushioning, the Legacy 96 is primarily designed as a comfortable everyday trainer. For dedicated running activities, specialized running shoes are recommended.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The trainers should feel snug but not tight. There should be a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. Consider trying them on with the type of socks you intend to wear.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, especially the suede and the cushioning technology.

What is the primary benefit of the Air Cushion heel?

The Air Cushion heel provides enhanced shock absorption and superior cushioning, contributing to overall comfort during extended wear.

How often should I clean the suede parts?

It's advisable to brush the suede lightly after each wear to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning or stain removal, use a specialized suede cleaner as needed.

What is the difference between this model and other Karhu Legacy versions?

The Legacy 96 specifically highlights the original construction and incorporates the Air Cushion heel technology, offering a distinct blend of heritage design and modern comfort features compared to other variations.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure you have the correct size. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods. Check sock compatibility and ensure laces are not tied too tightly.

Suede material becoming dirty or stained

Use a suede brush regularly for maintenance. For stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner and cleaning guide, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Reduced grip or slippery sole

Clean the outsole to remove any embedded debris. If the sole shows significant wear, consider replacement or professional assessment.
