FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the BOOST midsole?

The BOOST midsole is designed to provide exceptional energy return with every step, offering superior cushioning and comfort for extended wear.

How should I clean the suede upper?

Clean suede using a suede brush for dry dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and a damp cloth. Avoid soaking the material or using a washing machine.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

These trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and comfort. While the BOOST technology offers cushioning, they are not specialized for high-impact athletic activities like serious running.

What does 'BOOST midsole returns energy' mean?

It means that the cushioning material in the midsole absorbs impact and then springs back, returning some of that energy to your foot, which can make walking and standing feel less tiring.

Does the upper contain any recycled materials?

Yes, the upper contains a minimum of 50% recycled content.

What is the fit like?

These trainers have a regular fit, designed to accommodate most adult foot shapes comfortably. A lace closure allows for adjustability.

How do I maintain the iridescent details?

The iridescent details are part of the shoe's design and are generally durable. Clean them gently with a damp cloth if they accumulate dirt, avoiding harsh chemicals.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt. For stubborn stains, apply a dedicated suede cleaner sparingly with a clean cloth, following product instructions. Allow to dry naturally.

Laces are worn or damaged

Replace laces with standard shoe laces. Ensure they are the appropriate length for the number of eyelets on the trainers.

BOOST midsole feels less responsive

Ensure the midsole is clean from debris. Over time, cushioning may naturally decrease with extensive use. Regular cleaning can help maintain performance.

Color fading on suede

Store shoes away from direct sunlight. Avoid prolonged exposure to harsh weather conditions. Consider using a suede protector spray.
