FAQs
Are the Karhu Legacy 96 trainers waterproof?
No, they are made with suede which is a porous material. They should be protected with a water repellent spray.
Are these suitable for running?
While they feature performance-based cushioning, they are designed as lifestyle sneakers for walking and everyday use.
How should I clean the suede?
Use a specialized suede brush or eraser. Never submerge suede in water.
Do they fit true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to size. If you prefer extra room or wear thick socks, you may consider sizing up slightly.
Can the insoles be replaced?
Yes, the insoles are removable if you need to insert your own custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Visible water spots on suede
Allow to dry completely, then use a clean suede brush to gently lift the fibers and restore the texture.
Midsole looks dusty or scuffed
Use a soft damp cloth with a mild soap solution to wipe the EVA midsole clean; dry immediately.
Shoe feels too tight
Ensure the laces are not pulled excessively tight across the bridge; consider using thinner socks to provide extra room.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers fit true to size for most adults, though those planning to wear thicker socks may prefer a slight adjustment. Because these shoes feature suede detailing, it is highly recommended to apply a suede-specific water repellent spray before your first wear. To maintain the appearance, gently brush away surface dirt using a dedicated suede brush. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat and submersion can damage the structural integrity and the finish of the suede. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent cracking.
