FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are designed for general wear and comfort. While they offer cushioning, they are not specialized for high-impact running and may not provide the specific support or responsiveness required for intense running training.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the product sizing information for UK sizes. It is recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the provided size chart for the most accurate fit.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, especially due to the textile and synthetic upper and potential suede elements. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.
What does 'LIGHTMOTION midsole' mean?
LIGHTMOTION is adidas's technology for a lightweight and responsive midsole cushioning system, designed to provide comfort and support for everyday activities.
How durable is the rubber outsole?
The rubber outsole is designed for durability and reliable traction for regular use on various surfaces. Its longevity will depend on the frequency and conditions of use.
What is 'Cold Cement construction'?
Cold Cement construction is a manufacturing method where the shoe's sole is attached using adhesives at room temperature, contributing to a durable and clean finish.
Does the product come in other colors?
This specific product listing is for the White/Black colorway in UK size 7. Other colorways and sizes may be available as separate product listings.
Troubleshooting
Tight fit upon initial wear
Loosen the laces and wear for a short period. The textile and synthetic upper may need a brief break-in period. Ensure correct size is selected.
Squeaking sound
This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and midsole. Try removing the insole, checking for debris, and reinserting it firmly.
Traction feels insufficient on wet surfaces
The rubber outsole provides general traction, but performance on extremely wet or slippery surfaces may be reduced. Exercise caution in such conditions.
Color transfer from suede to socks
This is more common with new suede items. Ensure the suede is properly treated and dry. If it persists, consider using a suede protector spray.
