FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they are manufactured to standard UK sizing for adults.

Can I replace the bungee laces with traditional ones?

The bungee lacing is integrated into the design, so replacing them is not recommended as it may affect the structural fit of the upper.

How do I machine wash these trainers?

Place them in a laundry bag, use a gentle cycle with cold water, and always let them air dry away from direct heat sources.

Is the heel height consistent across all sizes?

Yes, the model features a standard 1 1/2-inch heel and 8mm offset throughout the range.

Can these be used for professional running?

While comfortable for light activity, they are primarily designed for walking and casual wear rather than competitive running.

Troubleshooting

Feeling instability in the arch

Ensure the bungee laces are adjusted correctly or consider using an aftermarket insole if you require higher arch support.

Dirty exterior mesh

Use a soft brush to remove loose debris before placing the shoes in the washing machine on a delicate, cold cycle.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent energy return via M-Strike technology
  • Lightweight design prevents leg fatigue
  • Machine-washable for easy maintenance
  • Convenient bungee lacing eliminates the need for tying
  • Smooth ride quality for daily walking

Cons

  • Not suitable for high-intensity or technical athletic training
  • Bungee laces offer less micro-adjustability than traditional laces
  • The geometric sole may feel different if you are accustomed to flat-soled shoes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers require no formal setup and can be worn immediately out of the box. Given the bungee lacing system, ensure your foot feels secure but not constricted during your initial wear. For care, the shoes are machine washable. It is recommended to wash on a gentle, cold cycle and always air dry to preserve the integrity of the foam cushioning and mesh upper. Avoid using harsh detergents or tumble dryers, as high heat can damage the bonding agents and cushioning materials.
