What kind of socks are best to wear with these trainers?

What is the main benefit of the cushioned midsole?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear with thin socks initially and gradually break them in. Consider using a shoe stretcher if needed.
Suede material looks dirty or stained
Use a dedicated suede cleaner and a suede brush. Follow the cleaner's instructions carefully and test on an inconspicuous area first.
Outsole grip seems reduced
Clean the outsole with water to remove dirt and debris that may be affecting traction. Check for excessive wear on the tread pattern.
