FAQs

What material are the Boerum trainers made of?

The Boerum trainers feature a knit upper with suede overlays. The sole is made for grip and the midsole is constructed from EVA for cushioning.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While inspired by running shoe design for comfort and lightness, they are best suited for casual wear and everyday activities rather than rigorous athletic training.

How should I clean the suede parts?

Use a specialized suede brush for dry dirt and a suede cleaner for stains. Avoid getting the suede excessively wet, and always air dry.

What is the heel height of these trainers?

These trainers have a flat heel height.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The suede material is not ideal for heavy rain. It is recommended to treat them with a waterproofing spray and avoid wearing them in very wet conditions to preserve the material.

What kind of socks are best with these trainers?

Standard athletic or casual socks are suitable. Given the knit upper, breathable socks are recommended for comfort.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a suede brush to remove surface dirt. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Ensure the suede is dry before brushing.

Laces are difficult to secure

Ensure the TPU metal eyelets are clear of debris. Adjust the lacing tension evenly across all eyelets.

Discomfort during wear

Ensure the correct size is being worn. Consider adding an insole for additional cushioning or arch support if needed. Break them in gradually by wearing them for short periods.

Sole feels slippery

Check the patterned sole for embedded debris. If the sole shows signs of wear, it may be time to consider replacement.
