FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

These trainers are designed for general training and cross-training activities. While they offer good cushioning, they may not provide the specialized support and cushioning required for long-distance marathon running.

Can I wear these trainers in wet conditions?

The rubber outsole provides some traction, but the textile upper is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or moderately damp conditions. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain.

How do I know if the wide fit is right for me?

The wide fit offers more room in the forefoot and midfoot. If you have previously found standard-width shoes to be too tight or uncomfortable in these areas, a wide fit may be beneficial. Trying them on is the best way to confirm.

What is the REPETITOR midsole made of?

The REPETITOR midsole is a cushioning technology developed by adidas, designed to offer high levels of comfort and responsiveness.

Can these trainers be machine washed?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash these trainers as it can damage the materials and construction. Hand clean with a damp cloth and mild soap.

What other colors are available?

This specific model is available in black with grey accents. Other adidas trainer models come in a variety of colors.

How durable is the rubber outsole?

The rubber outsole is designed for durability and provides good traction for training purposes. Regular care will help extend its lifespan.

Troubleshooting

Laces won't stay tied

Ensure laces are tied with a double knot. Consider replacing laces if they are worn or slippery.

Discomfort during wear

Verify the fit is correct, considering the wide fit design. Ensure socks are appropriate. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter wear periods.

Traction seems reduced

Clean the rubber outsole with water to remove dirt and debris that may be hindering grip.

Follow the recommended care instructions for spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap.
