FAQs
Are the Karhu Fusion 2.0 trainers suitable for running?
The Karhu Fusion 2.0 trainers are inspired by a classic running shoe but are designed primarily for casual wear and lifestyle use. They offer comfort for walking but are not intended for high-impact athletic performance.
How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?
Use a dedicated suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Always test cleaning methods on an inconspicuous area first and allow to air dry.
What material is the midsole made of?
The midsole is constructed from EVA (Ethylene-vinyl acetate), which provides lightweight cushioning and shock absorption.
Do these trainers have good grip?
The outsole is designed for everyday wear, offering adequate grip for typical urban environments. However, they may not provide optimal traction on wet or slippery surfaces compared to specialized performance footwear.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the trainers offer some protection, they are not waterproof. Suede and mesh materials can be damaged by excessive moisture. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions and to protect them with a suitable spray.
What does the 'speckled' midsole mean?
The 'speckled' effect on the EVA midsole refers to a visual design where small flecks or dots of a contrasting color are incorporated into the main midsole material, adding a unique aesthetic touch.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks matted or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a suede eraser or consult a specialized shoe cleaner.
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If still too tight, consider if the size is correct. Some materials may slightly stretch with wear, but significant discomfort indicates a potential sizing issue.
Reflective details are peeling
Avoid harsh cleaning methods or excessive rubbing on the reflective areas. If peeling occurs, it may be a manufacturing defect.
Pull tab feels loose
Check if the stitching around the pull tab is intact. If it appears to be coming loose, it may require professional repair.

Care:
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Karhu Fusion 2.0 trainers, regular care is essential, especially due to the suede components:
- Cleaning Suede: Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove dirt and debris. For stains, a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth can be used with caution. Always brush in one direction after cleaning to restore the nap.
