FAQs

What makes the 4D midsole unique?

The 4D midsole is 3D printed using Digital Light Synthesis technology. It's constructed from a lattice structure developed using 17 years of athlete data, offering precisely engineered cushioning and support.

Are these shoes suitable for all types of running?

These trainers are best suited for road running and general training due to their balanced cushioning and support. For trail running or highly technical terrain, specialized shoes may be more appropriate.

How does the Primeknit upper provide comfort?

The Primeknit material is engineered to stretch and adapt to the foot's shape, providing a sock-like fit that is both supportive and breathable, minimizing irritation and maximizing comfort.

What is the primary color of this trainer?

The primary color is 'Core Black'. The midsole features a distinctive Linen Green hue, and the three-stripes are reflective grey.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing with mild soap and water is the preferred method for cleaning the upper, and the midsole should be wiped clean.

What does 'UK 9.5' refer to?

UK 9.5 refers to the specific UK sizing for adult men's footwear. This indicates the shoe's size is equivalent to a UK size 9.5.

How durable is the 4D midsole?

The 4D midsole is designed for durability through consistent performance. However, like all footwear, its lifespan depends on usage intensity, frequency, and proper care.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight initially.

The Primeknit upper and 4D midsole may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the laces are not overtightened.

Midsole appears discolored.

The distinctive Linen Green hue of the midsole is a result of its manufacturing process. Minor variations are normal. If significant or unusual discoloration occurs, check for exposure to harsh chemicals or extreme conditions.

Reduced cushioning effect over time.

Ensure the shoes are clean and free from debris that could affect midsole performance. If the issue persists after thorough cleaning and a break-in period, contact customer support.

Reflective stripes losing reflectivity.

Avoid abrasive cleaning methods on the reflective elements. If reflectivity diminishes, it may be due to wear and tear or exposure to certain cleaning agents.
