FAQs
Are these trainers waterproof?
These trainers are not designed to be waterproof. The suede and microfiber materials offer some resistance to light moisture but are not suitable for heavy rain or wet conditions.
How does the CLEANSPORT NXT™ technology work?
CLEANSPORT NXT™ uses natural pro-biotics to break down odor-causing compounds, helping to keep your feet and shoes fresh without the use of harsh chemicals.
Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the suede, microfiber, cushioning, and adhesive components of the trainers.
What type of socks are best with these trainers?
Moisture-wicking socks made from materials like merino wool or synthetic blends are recommended to complement the odor-control features and enhance comfort.
Are these suitable for hiking?
While the rubber outsole provides good grip, these trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and light surfaces. They are not intended for rugged hiking trails.
How do I clean scuff marks on the suede?
For light scuff marks, try gently rubbing with a clean pencil eraser. For more significant marks, use a suede eraser or specialized suede cleaner.
What does 'post-industrial recycled materials' mean?
This refers to materials that were intended for industrial use but were not used in their original production process, and have been repurposed into new materials for the shoe lining.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears matted or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner.
Shoes feel stiff initially
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape. The cushioning will become more responsive with use.
Odor persists despite technology
While CLEANSPORT NXT™ is effective, ensure feet are clean and dry before wearing. If odor is persistent, consider using an antibacterial shoe spray as a supplementary measure.
Laces become dirty
Remove laces and hand wash with mild soap and water, or replace them if significantly worn.
