FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

The Charged Pursuit 4 is designed for versatility and everyday wear, offering good cushioning for shorter to moderate runs. For marathon distances, runners may prefer shoes with more specialized, long-distance cushioning and support features.

How much recycled content is in the upper?

The upper of the Charged Pursuit 4 contains at least 30% recycled content, contributing to sustainability.

What type of runner is this shoe best for?

These shoes are best suited for neutral runners who need a balance of flexibility, cushioning, and versatility. They are ideal for everyday wear, light training, and moderate running distances.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing or tumble drying is not recommended. It can damage the materials, cushioning, and structural integrity of the shoe. Clean them using a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry.

What is the heel-to-toe offset?

The heel-to-toe offset for the Charged Pursuit 4 is 8mm.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Start by tying the laces to a comfortable snugness, ensuring your heel is secure without excessive pressure. The deluxe foam sockliner will mold to your foot over time for a more personalized fit.

What is the primary material of the upper and outsole?

The upper is primarily made of 81% Textile and 19% Synthetic materials. The outsole is 100% Rubber.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not overtightened. Verify you have the correct size and consider if the internal padding requires a short break-in period.

Traction seems insufficient on wet surfaces

The durable outsole pattern is designed for general traction. For significantly wet or slippery conditions, exercise caution. Ensure the outsole is free from mud or debris.

Upper material feels restrictive

The performance mesh is designed for breathability. Ensure laces are adjusted correctly. For initial wear, short durations are recommended to allow the materials to conform to your foot shape.

Reduced cushioning feel after extended use

The Charged Cushioning® is durable but will naturally compress over time. Ensure the shoes are not exceeding their intended lifespan for high-impact activities. Proper care can help maintain cushioning.

Pros and Cons

  • Responsive cushioning provides excellent energy return.
  • Comfortable fit due to ankle padding and molded sockliner.
  • Durable outsole offers good traction.
  • Uses recycled materials in the upper construction.
  • Versatile for everyday wear and running.

Cons

  • May not provide sufficient support for runners with significant pronation.
  • Lace type is standard tie, which may require frequent adjustment for some users.
  • Specific use cases like marathon running might require more advanced features.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no initial setup beyond tying the laces. Ensure the laces are adjusted to provide a secure yet comfortable fit without restricting circulation. The standard tie lace system allows for personalized adjustment.

Compatibility: Designed as neutral shoes, they are most compatible with runners who have a neutral gait (foot lands on the outside of the heel and rolls inward slightly to absorb shock). They are suitable for road running, gym activities, and general casual wear.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning:
  • For general dirt, use a soft brush or cloth to wipe away any loose debris.
  • For tougher stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or soaking the shoes.
  • Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the materials and cushioning.
  1. Drying:
  • Always air dry shoes at room temperature.
  • Stuffing with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.
  • Keep away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can degrade materials.
  1. Storage:
  • Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
  • Avoid storing in damp conditions or direct sunlight.
