FAQs

Can I wear these with normal socks?

Standard socks will not work due to the split-toe design. You must use split-toe socks or wear the trainers barefoot.

Are these suitable for long-distance running?

While inspired by barefoot running, these are primarily categorized as lifestyle trainers and do not provide the cushioning required for high-impact long-distance running.

How do I choose the right size?

The Air Rift generally fits true to size, but the flexible textile upper offers some leeway. If you are between sizes, consider your preference for a snug or slightly looser fit.

How should I clean the textile upper?

Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild detergent to spot clean the fabric, then allow them to air dry.

Is the split-toe design comfortable?

Most users find it comfortable after a brief adjustment period as it allows the toes to splay naturally.

Troubleshooting

Strap doesn't stay fastened

Clean the hook-and-loop Velcro surfaces with a stiff brush to remove lint and debris that may prevent a strong grip.

Foot slipping inside the shoe

Ensure the midfoot strap is tightened sufficiently and that you are wearing the appropriate size for your foot width.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Distinctive and stylish retro design
  • High level of flexibility and natural feel
  • Secure, customizable midfoot fit
  • Lightweight and breathable materials

Cons

  • Split-toe design requires specific socks or barefoot wear
  • Unique fit may feel strange to first-time users
  • Less arch support compared to traditional stability trainers

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the best performance from your Air Rifts, adjust the midfoot strap until you feel a secure lockdown without the strap cutting into the skin. Since these feature a split-toe, they are incompatible with standard socks; you should either wear them barefoot or with specialized split-toe socks. To maintain the shoes, spot clean the textile upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can damage the structural integrity of the fabric and the adhesive on the straps. Air dry away from direct heat sources to preserve the shape.
