FAQs
What makes the 4D midsole different?
The 4D midsole is created using a digital light synthesis process, allowing for unparalleled precision in creating a lattice structure based on 17 years of athlete data. This results in finely tuned cushioning and support tailored for athletic performance.
Is this shoe suitable for marathon running?
While the 4D midsole offers excellent cushioning, it's primarily designed for a balance of performance and lifestyle. For elite marathon runners, shoes specifically engineered for maximum long-distance efficiency might be preferred. However, it is suitable for shorter runs and general training.
How do I clean the 'Core Black' Primeknit upper?
Gently use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap and water solution. Wipe away dirt and then rinse the cloth with clean water to remove soap residue. Always air dry.
Can I machine wash these shoes?
It is strongly recommended not to machine wash the Adidas Futurecraft 4D. Machine washing can damage the delicate Primeknit upper and the 4D midsole structure. Hand washing and spot cleaning are the preferred methods.
What is the typical lifespan of the 4D midsole?
The durability of the 4D midsole is designed to be comparable to high-quality EVA foams used in athletic footwear. With proper care and regular use (e.g., running 3-4 times a week), you can expect the cushioning benefits to last for several hundred miles or approximately 1-2 years.
Are there other colorways available?
Yes, the Futurecraft 4D series has been released in various colorways, including different shades for the Primeknit upper and the 4D midsole. The 'Core Black' refers to the specific iteration of the upper, while the midsole typically features a Linen Green hue.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
The Primeknit upper will stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them with thinner socks initially. If still too tight after several wears, consider seeking an exchange for a larger size if within the return period.
Midsole feels unusually stiff
Ensure the shoes are broken in properly. Consistent wear for a few sessions should help the midsole adapt to your foot's natural movement. Avoid exposing the shoes to extreme temperatures.
Discoloration on the midsole
The Linen Green hue is a natural result of the manufacturing process. Minor variations are normal. For cleaning-related discoloration, use only a damp cloth and mild soap as per care instructions.
Primeknit upper is dirty
Spot clean with a soft cloth and a small amount of mild soap diluted in water. Gently dab the affected area. Rinse the cloth with clean water and wipe away any soap residue. Allow to air dry.

Care Instructions:
