FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

While the SolarGlide offers good cushioning, they are primarily designed for training and shorter runs. For dedicated marathon training, specialized long-distance running shoes might offer more targeted support and cushioning.

What materials are used in these trainers?

These trainers incorporate sustainable materials, including recycled components, reflecting the collaboration's commitment to eco-conscious design.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The fit should be snug but not tight, with enough room in the toe box. Your heel should feel secure without slipping. It is recommended to try them on, ideally later in the day when feet are slightly swollen, to ensure comfort.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing with mild soap and water is the preferred method for cleaning to preserve the materials and structure.

What is the main benefit of the Boost technology?

Boost technology provides superior energy return and cushioning, absorbing impact and returning it as responsive energy to help you feel lighter on your feet during activity.

Are there other color options available?

This specific guide focuses on the Triple Black (Core Black/Core Black/Core Black) colorway. Other colorways may be available depending on the retailer and release.

What is the expected lifespan of these trainers?

The lifespan varies based on frequency of use, intensity of activity, and maintenance. For regular training use, most athletic shoes provide optimal performance for 300-500 miles or 6-12 months.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound during wear.

This can sometimes occur due to friction between components. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or around the tongue area. Ensure laces are not overtightened.

Reduced cushioning or responsiveness.

Over time, cushioning can degrade with heavy use. Ensure the shoes are clean and that there are no debris trapped in the midsole. For significantly reduced cushioning, it may indicate the end of the shoe's optimal lifespan for high-impact activities.

Discomfort or rubbing on the heel/toe.

Ensure the correct size is being worn. Try adjusting the lacing pattern to alleviate pressure points. Wearing appropriate athletic socks can also help prevent rubbing.

Care:

To maintain the condition of your trainers:

  1. Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and moisture.
