FAQs
How do I know if I need to size up?
The product information suggests that if you find yourself between standard shoe sizes, it is recommended to purchase the next size up for the 247 ARC-1 Runner to ensure a comfortable fit.
What type of running are these shoes best for?
These trainers are performance-engineered predominantly for 5-10k runs and active lifestyle wear, offering a balance of cushioning, stability, and comfort for moderate distances.
How should I clean my ARC-1 Runners?
Clean the shoes by spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or prolonged soaking to preserve the integrity of the materials.
What is the purpose of the TPU overlay?
The TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) overlay is integrated into the upper to provide enhanced midfoot support and contribute to a secure, consistent fit during movement.
Are these shoes suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, the combination of cushioning, breathability, and a comfortable heel design makes them suitable for active lifestyle wear throughout the day, in addition to running.
What does the 'anti-microbial insock' do?
The anti-microbial insock is designed to help inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria, contributing to a fresher feel inside the shoe with each wear.
What is included with the shoes?
The 247 ARC-1 Runners come with a purpose-built 247 Branded Nylon Dust Bag that features an internal divider, providing a convenient and protective way to store your shoes.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or narrow.
Try wearing thinner socks or consider if you are between sizes and should have ordered the next size up as recommended.
Reduced cushioning after initial use.
EVA midsoles may compress slightly over time. Ensure the shoes are not being used for activities beyond their intended purpose (e.g., extreme trail running).
Foot odor developing quickly.
Ensure feet are clean and dry before wearing. Air out the shoes after each use and consider using foot powder. The anti-microbial insock helps, but good hygiene practices are essential.
Traction feels insufficient on wet surfaces.
The minimalist outsole prioritizes lightness. Be cautious when running on wet or slippery surfaces, as grip may be reduced compared to shoes with more aggressive tread patterns.
