Product Information
Full details
The Lotus Pluto trainer is designed for the modern adult seeking a versatile blend of athletic style and everyday functionality. These trainers are ideal for casual outings like brunch or errands, offering a supportive wedge heel and a lightweight build for all-day wear. While they provide excellent aesthetic appeal and ease of use, note that the 4-6cm wedge heel offers a specific look and feel compared to flat athletic sneakers, which may not suit those seeking a completely level footbed.

FAQs
What is the heel height on the Lotus Pluto trainers?
These trainers feature a wedge heel height between 4cm and 6cm.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Lotus Pluto is designed as a fashion-lifestyle trainer and is not intended for running or high-intensity sports.
How do I put these trainers on easily?
While they feature laces for a custom fit, you can use the exposed side zip to easily slip your feet in and out without unlacing the shoes every time.
What does the 'standard fitting' mean?
Standard fitting indicates the shoe is designed to fit the average foot width and shape, providing a reliable fit for most users.
Can I remove the insole?
The insole is designed to be part of the shoe's internal comfort system. We recommend keeping it in place to maintain the intended support profile.
How do I keep the red finish looking bright?
Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals or direct long-term sunlight. Use a soft, damp cloth for cleaning and consider a fabric protector spray suitable for the upper material.
Troubleshooting
Side zipper feels stuck or stiff
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track; apply a small amount of clear candle wax to the teeth to improve sliding performance.
Laces constantly come untied
Ensure you are using a double knot or a reef knot if the laces are made of smooth material, or replace them with higher-friction cotton laces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Lotus Pluto trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines. Upon first wear, loosen the laces to adjust the fit to your specific foot volume; once adjusted, you can primarily use the side zipper for entry.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe the upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water to maintain the integrity of the adhesive and materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading of the red finish.
- Maintenance: Check the zipper periodically for debris and ensure the track remains clear to maintain smooth operation.
