FAQs

What makes the Instruct trainers suitable for everyday wear?

Their lightweight construction, cushioned Ease footbed, and breathable materials like mesh and suede make them comfortable for extended daily use and urban activities.

How does the CLEANSPORT NXT™ feature work?

CLEANSPORT NXT™ is a probiotic technology embedded in the fabric sock lining that naturally breaks down odor-causing bacteria, helping to keep feet fresh.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the rubber outsole provides traction, the suede upper is not waterproof and can be damaged by excessive moisture. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions.

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

For optimal comfort and breathability, especially with the odor control features, moisture-wicking socks made from materials like cotton blends or technical fabrics are recommended.

How often should I clean the suede material?

Regular brushing with a suede brush after wear will help maintain the material's appearance. Deeper cleaning should be done as needed when stains or significant dirt accumulate.

Are these trainers suitable for hiking or strenuous exercise?

The Instruct trainers are designed for casual wear and light urban activity. They may not provide the necessary support or durability for hiking or high-impact exercises.

What is the primary material used for the upper?

The upper is primarily made from soft suede, complemented by a breathable mesh lining.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not overtightened. If the issue persists, consider the fit for your specific foot shape or explore thicker socks.

Suede looks dull or marked

Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For tougher marks, a suede eraser can be effective. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first.

Feet feel warm

Ensure the laces are not too tight, allowing for better air circulation. Wear with moisture-wicking socks for improved breathability.

Outsole traction feels reduced

Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that might be affecting grip.

Cons

  • Suede upper may be susceptible to water damage and staining.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have them tied securely but comfortably before each use.

Compatibility: The Caterpillar Instruct Trainers are designed as casual footwear and are compatible with a wide range of casual attire, including jeans, shorts, and casual trousers. They are best suited for adult use.

Care:

  1. Cleaning Suede: Use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dirt and debris. For stains, a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth can be used gently. Avoid soaking the suede.
  2. Lining: The fabric sock lining with CLEANSPORT NXT™ requires no special care beyond general shoe ventilation. Allow shoes to air dry if they become damp.
  3. Outsole: Wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove mud or debris.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, preferably in a shoe bag to protect the suede.
