FAQs
Are the Karhu Fusion 2.0 suitable for running?
While based on a 1996 running model, the Fusion 2.0 is currently positioned as a lifestyle trainer. It is intended for casual daily use rather than competitive athletic performance.
How should I clean the suede panels?
Use a dry suede brush to remove dust and dirt. For tougher stains, use a suede-specific cleaning solution, but always test on a small, inconspicuous area first.
Do these shoes run true to size?
The Karhu Fusion 2.0 generally fits true to size. As with all footwear, it is recommended to consider the volume of your foot when selecting your UK 12 size.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing will damage the suede material and compromise the structural adhesives used in the sole construction.
What is the function of the Fulcrum technology?
The Fulcrum technology is designed to guide the foot during the transition from heel-strike to toe-off, creating a balanced and comfortable walking experience.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
The suede upper is not naturally waterproof. Applying a protective spray can increase resistance to light moisture, but you should avoid wearing them in heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Visible water or dirt marks on the suede
Allow the dirt to dry completely and gently lift it using a soft suede brush or a specialized suede eraser.
Loss of cushioning feel over time
Remove the factory insoles and replace them with high-quality orthotics if you require additional arch support after heavy use.
Colors appearing dull
Use a suede renovator spray matched to the brown tone to restore color richness, taking care to avoid the pink accents.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Karhu Fusion 2.0 trainers remain in top condition, proper care is essential, especially given the suede composition.
- Protection: Apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before the first wear to protect against the elements.
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and debris. Avoid soaking the shoes in water, as this can damage the material.
- Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the pink detailing to fade over time.
- Fit: These trainers are sized for a standard adult UK 12 fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks for the best experience.
