FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for road running?
While the cushioning provides comfort, these shoes are specifically designed with a trail-specific sole for off-road grip. For dedicated road running, a shoe with a smoother, road-oriented outsole would be more appropriate. However, they can be used for short road sections or warm-ups.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer. Generally, ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The fit should be snug but not constricting.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, cushioning, and structural integrity of the shoe. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred cleaning method.
What is the main advantage of the double-density cushioning?
The double-density cushioning offers a dual benefit: it provides a responsive, energetic feel for efficient propulsion and simultaneously absorbs impact, protecting your feet and joints from the harshness of the ground, especially on uneven terrain.
How effective are the reflective details?
The reflective details are designed to catch and reflect light sources, such as headlights or streetlights, making the wearer more visible in low-light conditions. This significantly enhances safety for runners active during dawn, dusk, or night.
What kind of trail conditions are these best suited for?
These trainers are best suited for moderate trail conditions, including dirt paths, gravel, light mud, and some rocky sections. They offer a good balance of cushioning and grip for varied terrain.
Troubleshooting
Slipping on wet surfaces
While designed for trail grip, extremely slick surfaces can challenge any shoe. Ensure the sole is clean of mud or debris. For best results, use caution on very wet, smooth surfaces.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
The double-density cushioning is durable, but excessive wear can reduce its effectiveness. Ensure proper care and avoid extreme conditions. If significant degradation occurs, it may be time to consider replacement.
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If the rubbing persists, check for any internal seams or debris. Trying the shoes with different lacing techniques can also help find a more comfortable fit.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the mesh and technical fabric upper with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Sole: Use a damp cloth or a soft brush to clean the midsole and outsole. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the materials.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials and shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape when not in use.
