FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the Ultimate 81 EX?

The Ultimate 81 EX is designed as a versatile lifestyle trainer, blending classic athletic aesthetics with comfort for everyday wear.

How do I determine the correct UK size?

Refer to the brand's official sizing chart or try on pairs in-store if possible. Ensure there is adequate space at the toe.

Can these trainers be worn for running?

While they offer comfort for walking, they are primarily casual trainers and may not provide the specialized support or cushioning required for serious running.

What material are the 'Birch Kale' trainers made of?

Specific materials can vary, but typically feature a mix of suede, synthetic leather, and textile uppers, with a rubber sole.

Are these trainers suitable for wet weather?

These trainers are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials and maintain their appearance.

What is the difference between this and older Ultimate 81 models?

The 'EX' designation usually implies updated materials, improved comfort features, or slight design modifications compared to the original Ultimate 81.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and wear with appropriate socks. If still uncomfortable after initial wear, consider if the size is correct.

Discoloration of the 'Birch Kale' color

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with a specialized shoe cleaner for suede or fabric if applicable.

Laces fraying

Replace laces with a similar style and length. Ensure laces are tied securely but not overly tight to prevent unnecessary stress.
