FAQs
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by Geox. For the Flextride Plus, ensure there is enough room in the toe box and a secure fit around the heel without being too tight. Given the hand-free entry, a snug fit that doesn't require excessive force to put on is ideal.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is primarily crafted from 84% Cow Leather Coated, with 16% Woven Polyamide/Nylon Textile.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Flextride Plus trainers are designed for comfort during everyday activities and walking. They are not intended for high-impact running or specialized athletic training.
How should I clean the leather and textile parts?
For leather, use a damp cloth and a leather cleaner. For textile and nylon parts, spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Always air dry away from direct heat.
What does 'Flextride Plus' signify?
'Flextride Plus' refers to the series name, indicating Geox's technology and design focus for this particular model, likely emphasizing flexibility, comfort, and advanced features for urban mobility.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the materials offer some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Avoid heavy rain or puddles to protect the leather and textile components.
What is the heel height?
The Flextride Plus trainers feature a flat heel, designed for stability and comfort during prolonged wear.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty with hand-free entry
Ensure the shoe is fully unlaced or loosened if applicable. Try using a shoehorn for the initial few wears as the shoe molds to your foot.
Leather appearing dry or stiff
Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for your type of leather to restore moisture and suppleness. Follow product instructions carefully.
Unusual smell
Ensure the shoes are properly aired out after each wear. Use a shoe deodorizer or baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Check that the insoles are dry.
Squeaking sound
This can sometimes occur due to friction between internal components. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole. If the squeak persists, it might indicate a more structural issue.

Care:
- Uppers: Clean the leather sections gently with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner. Avoid excessive water.
