Karhu Legacy 96 Trainers - Grey - Size: 9.5

The Karhu Legacy 96 Trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and everyday wear. While they offer good cushioning and support, they are not specialized running shoes and may not provide the specific performance or protection required for intense running.

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Karhu, which typically relates foot measurements to specific shoe sizes. It's also helpful to know your usual fit in similar trainer styles.

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

Clean your trainers as needed, especially after exposure to dirt or stains. Regular spot cleaning with a soft brush or damp cloth will help maintain their appearance.

The Air Cushion heel provides enhanced shock absorption and comfort, reducing impact on your feet and joints during daily activities.

The trainers are water-resistant due to the materials used, but they are not fully waterproof. They can handle light moisture, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain may lead to them getting wet.

The Legacy 96 specifically refers to the revival of the 1996 model, featuring its original design elements combined with modern comfort technologies. The broader 'Legacy' series might encompass other heritage-inspired designs.

Ensure you are wearing the correct size. If slightly snug, wear them with thin socks for a short period to allow the materials to flex. For significant tightness, consider if a larger size is needed.

The Air Cushion heel is designed for longevity. If cushioning feels significantly reduced, ensure the insoles are clean and properly positioned. For very old shoes, the cushioning may naturally degrade.

Use a suede eraser for dry marks. For stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner or a professional shoe cleaning service. Act quickly on fresh stains.

Check the outsole for embedded debris and clean it. If the outsole is significantly worn down, it may be time to consider a replacement pair as the grip will be compromised.
