FAQs
Are the Karhu Fusion 2.0 suitable for running?
While the Fusion 2.0 is inspired by a running shoe, it is best suited for casual wear, lifestyle, and light athletic activities due to its modern reinterpretation and focus on lifestyle comfort.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Karhu or the retailer. The Fusion 2.0 typically runs true to size for most wearers. Consider trying them on if possible.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials (suede, leather, mesh) and the structural integrity of the shoe.
What is the Fulcrum Technology?
Karhu's Fulcrum Technology is an internal support system within the midsole designed to guide the foot through a more efficient and natural gait cycle, reducing unnecessary rotation and improving stability.
How often should I clean my Fusion 2.0 trainers?
Clean them as needed, especially after exposure to dirt or moisture. Regular spot cleaning and occasional deep cleaning based on material care instructions will help maintain their appearance and longevity.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The Karhu Fusion 2.0 trainers are not waterproof. They offer some resistance to light moisture due to their materials, but are not designed for heavy rain or wet conditions.
What is the difference between the original Fusion and the Fusion 2.0?
The Fusion 2.0 is a modernized version of the original 1996 Fusion, redesigned with updated materials and construction techniques for contemporary comfort and style, while respecting the original silhouette.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel loose
Re-tie the laces, ensuring they are snug but not overly tight. Adjust the knot or double-knot for extra security.
Suede appears matted or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap. For stubborn dirt, spot clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry completely before brushing again.
Reduced cushioning over time
The EVA midsole is designed for longevity, but significant wear may reduce its effectiveness. Ensure proper care and avoid excessive stress to prolong its lifespan.
Poor grip on wet surfaces
While the rubber outsole offers good traction, wet surfaces can be inherently slippery. Exercise caution when walking on wet or icy conditions.
