FAQs
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the Regatta Blaze Trainers feature a 'Hydropel water-resistant finish,' which means they are designed to repel water and keep your feet dry in light rain and changeable weather, but they are not fully waterproof for heavy downpours or submersion.
What is the 'Hydropel' finish?
Hydropel is a water-resistant technology applied to the trainers' upper material. It helps to shed water droplets, preventing them from soaking into the fabric and keeping your feet drier and more comfortable in damp conditions.
Can I use these trainers for running?
Yes, these trainers are suitable for running. They feature an XLT midsole with heel strike cushioning to reduce impact, and a lightweight, slip-resistant rubber outsole for stability and traction during your runs.
What type of lacing system do these trainers have?
The Regatta Blaze Trainers are equipped with a 'speed lace fastening system.' This allows for quick and easy adjustments to achieve a secure and comfortable fit without the need for traditional tying.
How should I clean my Regatta Blaze Trainers?
To clean your trainers, wipe away dirt with a damp cloth and mild soap. For more stubborn marks, use a soft brush. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents to protect the materials and water-resistant finish.
What is the 'XLT midsole'?
The XLT midsole is a specific cushioning technology integrated into the trainer's sole. It's designed to provide effective heel strike cushioning, absorbing shock and reducing impact during activities, enhancing overall comfort and support.
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The product description does not specify suitability for wide feet. The moulded openfoam insock offers flexible comfort, but if you typically require wide-fit footwear, it is recommended to try them on to ensure a comfortable fit.
Troubleshooting
My feet still feel damp after walking in light rain.
While the trainers feature a Hydropel water-resistant finish, they are not fully waterproof. For enhanced protection in wet conditions, consider applying an additional fabric-safe water-repellent spray designed for footwear, focusing on the nylon ripstop upper.
The speed lace system feels too loose or too tight.
Adjust the tension of the speed laces by pulling the laces through the toggle to achieve your preferred snugness. Ensure the toggle is securely locked into place after adjustment to prevent loosening during activity. Experiment with different tensions to find the most comfortable fit for your activity.
The trainers seem to have lost some of their cushioning over time.
Regular use can compress cushioning materials. Consider replacing the moulded openfoam insocks with new, high-quality athletic insoles to restore underfoot comfort and support. If the trainers are heavily worn, it may be time to replace them entirely to ensure optimal impact reduction and foot health.

- Weather: Designed for changeable conditions, offering water resistance for light rain and breathability for warmer days.
Care
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your trainers:
- Cleaning: Wipe off dirt and mud with a damp cloth immediately after use. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage materials and adhesives.
- Water Resistance: Over time, the Hydropel finish may require reapplication of a water-resistant treatment spray, especially after washing, to maintain its effectiveness. Follow the instructions on the product for re-waterproofing sprays.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
