FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

These trainers are primarily designed for stability in weightlifting and strength training. While they can handle short distances, they lack the cushioning and flexibility optimal for dedicated running.

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

If you have naturally wider feet or find most training shoes constrictive, the wide fit should be comfortable. If you have narrow feet, you may need to lace them very tightly or consider adding insoles.

What is the TPU midfoot torsion system?

It's a support structure integrated into the midsole that enhances stability during multi-directional movements and dynamic exercises, preventing excessive twisting of the midfoot.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction. Clean them manually with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.

How durable are the materials?

They are constructed with a combination of durable textile and rubber, designed to withstand the rigors of regular, intense training sessions.

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

For best comfort and performance, athletic-specific socks are recommended. Thicker socks can help provide a snugger fit if the shoes feel too wide.

What is the primary benefit of the stable midsole?

The stable midsole is designed to provide a solid and unmoving platform underfoot, which is crucial for transferring force effectively during heavy lifts and reducing the risk of ankle instability.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too wide

Tighten the laces significantly, utilizing all eyelets. Consider using thicker socks or an insole for a snugger fit.

Reduced stability during lifts

Ensure the laces are tied securely. Check that the midsole is not compressed or damaged. Clean any debris from the outsole for maximum grip.

Discomfort after a training session

Verify you have the correct size. Ensure the mesh upper is not causing friction by adjusting the lacing. Allow shoes to air out completely between uses.
