FAQs
Are these trainers fully waterproof?
The Regatta Blaze Trainers feature a Hydropel water-resistant finish, which provides protection against changeable weather and light moisture. They are not fully waterproof, meaning they are not designed for submersion or heavy, prolonged rain.
What kind of activities are these trainers best suited for?
These trainers are highly versatile. They are ideal for everyday wear, gym workouts, running, and light outdoor adventures like walking on trails or engaging in various outdoor sports due to their comfort, support, and traction.
How do I ensure the best fit with the speed lace system?
To get the best fit, insert your foot and gently pull the speed lace mechanism until the trainer feels snug and secure around your foot, without being uncomfortably tight. Experiment with the tension to find your ideal comfort level.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, these trainers should not be machine washed. They are designed for rinse/wipe clean only. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and water-resistant finish.
What is the benefit of the TECFOAM insock and XLT midsole?
The TECFOAM moulded open foam insock provides superior underfoot comfort by adapting to your foot's shape, offering enhanced support and flexibility. The XLT technical midsole with heel strike cushioning reduces impact and fatigue, which is crucial for comfort during long periods of wear or intense activities.
Is the outsole durable and slip-resistant on all surfaces?
The lightweight rubber outsole is hardwearing and described as slip-resistant, offering durable traction and stability on various surfaces. While it performs well on most common terrains, extreme conditions like ice or highly polished wet surfaces may still pose a slip risk.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel less water-resistant over time.
Ensure the trainers are clean, as dirt can impede the Hydropel finish. If extensively used, the water resistance may naturally diminish and can sometimes be replenished with appropriate outdoor footwear waterproofing sprays (check product compatibility before use).
Foot discomfort or rubbing during wear.
Check your sock choice; ensure they are appropriate for the activity. Re-adjust the speed lace fastening system to ensure a secure but not overly tight fit. Verify that the TECFOAM insock is properly seated inside the trainer.
Unpleasant odor developing inside the trainers.
Always air dry your trainers thoroughly after each use. Remove the TECFOAM insocks periodically for separate airing and cleaning. Consider using shoe deodorizers or natural odor absorbers.

Care
Proper care extends the life and performance of your trainers:
- Cleaning: Rinse/wipe clean only. Do not use a washing machine or immerse fully in water. A damp cloth can be used to wipe away dirt and grime from the upper and outsole.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or using artificial heat sources (like radiators or hair dryers), as this can damage materials and adhesives.
- Storage: Do not store near a heat source. Ensure they are completely dry before storing in a cool, well-ventilated area.
