FAQs

What makes the 4D midsole unique?

The 4D midsole is 3D-printed using a process involving light, oxygen, and liquid resin. This allows for precise control over cushioning and support based on 17 years of athlete data, creating a lattice structure that provides finely tuned performance.

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

The Primeknit upper offers a flexible, adaptive fit, which can accommodate slightly wider feet. However, for extremely wide feet, the sock-like fit might feel snug. It's recommended to try them on if possible.

How do I clean the 4D midsole?

The 4D midsole can be cleaned with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild soap solution and wipe clean with a fresh damp cloth. Ensure it's air-dried afterward.

What is the difference between this 2021 reissue and the original 2018 model?

This 2021 reissue is largely a faithful recreation of the original 2018 model, featuring the same core Primeknit upper, reflective three-stripes, and 4D midsole technology. Minor updates may exist in materials or manufacturing processes.

Can I wear these for long-distance running marathons?

While the 4D midsole offers excellent cushioning, it is generally recommended for shorter to moderate distances. For marathon running, consider shoes specifically engineered for extreme endurance, which may offer more advanced features for prolonged impact absorption.

What does the 'Core Black' colorway signify?

'Core Black' refers to the primary color of the shoe's upper and main components. The midsole features a contrasting 'Linen Green' hue.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight initially

The Primeknit upper and 4D midsole may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.

Midsole appears to have discoloration

The Linen Green hue of the 4D midsole is a natural characteristic of the material. Minor variations are normal. If significant or unusual discoloration occurs, contact customer support.

Traction feels insufficient on wet surfaces

The outsole provides good traction on most surfaces, but performance on extremely wet or slippery conditions may be reduced. Clean the outsole regularly to ensure optimal grip.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to gently clean the Primeknit upper. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
  • Cleaning the Midsole: The 4D midsole can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a thorough rinse with a clean, damp cloth.
  • Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain material integrity and color.
