FAQs
Is the Wave Daichi LS a running shoe?
While it is based on the Wave Daichi 4 trail running model, the LS version is specifically designed for lifestyle and casual wear rather than competitive trail racing.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The materials are water-resistant to a degree for city use, but they are not marketed as fully waterproof footwear.
How do I determine my size?
These trainers use standard UK sizing. We recommend checking your current athletic footwear size for consistency.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if preferred.
How long will the Michelin rubber last?
The Michelin rubber compound is formulated for high abrasion resistance and is significantly more durable than standard trainer outsoles.
Troubleshooting
Outer sole picking up debris
Due to the deep tread pattern of the Michelin rubber, small stones may get lodged. Use a soft brush to gently remove debris.
Creasing at the forefoot
As with any technical trainer, some creasing is natural. To minimize, store with shoe trees to keep the materials tensioned when not in use.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the Wave Daichi LS is a lifestyle trainer, no specialized break-in period is typically required. To maintain the appearance and functionality of the footwear:
- Cleaning: Wipe the upper with a soft, damp cloth. Use a mild soap solution for tougher stains on the synthetic components.
- Drying: Air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the materials.
- Care: Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can damage the structural integrity of the wave plate and rubber bonding.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place and use a shoe tree if storing for extended periods to maintain the original shape.
