FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

These trainers are specifically designed for weightlifting and strength training. They offer superior stability for lifting but lack the cushioning and flexibility required for optimal running performance.

How do I know if the wide fit is right for me?

The wide fit is designed to offer a more stable platform. If you typically find standard-width training shoes constricting, this might be a good option. However, fit can be personal, so trying them on is recommended if possible.

What is the Torsion System?

The Torsion System is adidas technology that provides midfoot support and allows the shoe to twist and adapt naturally to the ground and your foot's movements, enhancing stability during dynamic actions.

Can I wear these casually?

While they offer comfort, their design is specialized for training. For casual wear, you might prefer a shoe with a more versatile aesthetic and cushioning profile.

How should I clean my trainers?

Clean them by wiping with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Let them air dry completely away from heat.

What type of workouts are these best for?

They are best suited for weightlifting, strength training, functional fitness, and gym workouts that involve lifting heavy weights and require a stable base.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring even pressure. If the width is the issue, consider if they are the correct fit for your foot shape.

Reduced stability during lifts

Ensure the shoes are laced securely but not overly tight. Check that the midsole is not damaged or compressed from excessive wear.

Feet feel hot during workouts

Confirm that the mesh upper is not obstructed by dirt or debris. Ensure socks worn are also breathable.
