FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The Prime Event trainers are designed as heritage runners, best suited for casual wear and light activities. They offer cushioning but are not specialized for high-impact or competitive running.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper features a combination of a nylon base with plush suede overlays.
How should I clean the suede parts?
Use a soft brush or a specialized suede cleaner and protector. Avoid water saturation and use a suede brush to maintain the texture.
Can these trainers be worn by men and women?
Yes, the Prime Event trainers have a unisex design, making them suitable for all genders.
What kind of midsole do these trainers have?
They feature a die-cut EVA midsole, which provides lightweight cushioning.
Are they good for wide feet?
The fit can vary, but as unisex trainers with a classic runner profile, they generally offer a standard width. Trying them on or checking specific width reviews is recommended if you have concerns about foot width.
How durable are the trainers?
The trainers are constructed with durable materials like nylon and suede, intended for regular casual wear. However, longevity depends on usage and care. Avoid excessive wear on abrasive surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them for short periods initially to allow the materials to mold to your feet. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in period if needed.
Suede looks dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to lift the nap and remove light dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner following product instructions.
White stripes are marked
Gently wipe the vector stripes with a clean, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
Sole feels less cushioned over time
The EVA midsole provides lightweight cushioning which may compress slightly with extended use. Ensure regular cleaning and avoid excessive wear on rough surfaces to prolong the midsole's feel.
