Product Information

Full details

FAQs

Can I use these for running?

These trainers are optimized for walking and light daily activities. While comfortable, they may lack the stability required for long-distance road running.

Are they true to size?

Yes, they are generally designed to fit true to standard UK adult sizing.

How should I dry them after washing?

Always air dry. Do not put them in the tumble dryer, as heat can damage the foam cushioning and the structural integrity of the mesh.

Does the bungee lacing wear out?

The bungee cords are durable, but like any elastic material, they may lose some elasticity over many years of heavy use.

Are the insoles removable?

Most models in this series feature removable insoles, which allows for the use of custom orthotics if required.

Troubleshooting

Bungee laces feel too tight or too loose

The bungee system is fixed, but you can adjust the tension by pulling the laces slightly at the eyelets to redistribute fit before tightening.

Shoes feel slippery after machine washing

Ensure the shoes are completely dry before use; residual moisture on the outsole can reduce traction on smooth surfaces.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight construction at only 8.8oz
  • Machine washable for easy hygiene maintenance
  • Energy-returning midsole promotes a fluid walking gait
  • Breathable athletic mesh upper keeps feet cool
  • Convenient slip-on functionality via bungee laces

Cons

  • No-tie lacing may not offer a customizable fit for all foot shapes
  • Not specifically designed for high-intensity lateral sports
  • Limited to casual fitness and walking utility

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these trainers utilize a bungee lacing system, there is no initial setup required; simply slide the shoe on. They are designed as true-to-size athletic wear. For care, these shoes are machine washable, which is a significant advantage for maintaining the fabric's appearance. To clean: remove the insoles if possible, place the shoes in a laundry bag, and wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. Always air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to prevent warping or damage to the synthetic adhesives.
