FAQs
What is the primary material of the Boerum trainers?
The trainers feature an engineered knit upper with suede overlays. The sole is made of rubber and EVA, and the lining is a blend of plastic and polyester.
Are these trainers suitable for running or athletic activities?
No, these trainers are inspired by running shoes for their aesthetic and lightweight feel but are designed primarily for casual wear and everyday comfort, not athletic performance.
How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?
For suede, use a suede brush to remove loose dirt and maintain texture. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner, testing it on a small area first.
What kind of support do these trainers offer?
They offer support through a microsuede-lined insole, an ergonomic moulded foam footbed, and a stabilised heel.
What does the EVA midsole contribute?
The one-piece EVA midsole provides cushioning and a lightweight feel, contributing to overall comfort during wear.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the rubber outsole offers some grip, the suede and knit upper are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials.
What is the heel height of the Boerum trainers?
The heel height is flat.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces. If still tight, consider wearing thinner socks or allow for a break-in period as the materials adjust to your foot.
Suede appears matted or dirty
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For stubborn dirt, use a dedicated suede cleaner, following product instructions carefully.
Sole feels slippery
Ensure the treaded outsole is free from debris. For very smooth surfaces, the traction may be reduced compared to specialized footwear.
Laces come undone easily
Re-tie the laces more securely. Consider using a double knot if this persists, or replacing the laces with a type that offers more grip.
