FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

These trainers are primarily designed for comfort and casual wear. While they can be used for light jogs or warm-ups, they lack the specialized support and lockdown features required for serious running.

How do I know if the wide fit is right for me?

If you typically find standard-width shoes uncomfortable, tight across the forefoot, or if you have conditions like bunions, the wide fit is likely to be more comfortable. The sock-like construction further aids in adapting to your foot shape.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the adhesives, foam cushioning, and textile materials. Spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.

What is the weight of these trainers?

The approximate weight for a pair of these trainers is 540 grams.

How durable is the CLOUDFOAM midsole?

The CLOUDFOAM midsole is designed for comfort and shock absorption. Its durability is best suited for casual wear and light activities. Intense or prolonged high-impact use may lead to faster compression of the foam.

Are there other colors available in this model?

Yes, the Cloudfoam Flex series is available in various colorways. Please check the product listing or brand's official site for other available options.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight despite being the correct size.

The sock-like construction and wide fit are designed for comfort. If they feel snug, try wearing them with thinner socks or allow a break-in period. Ensure no debris is trapped inside.

Reduced cushioning effect over time.

The Cloudfoam cushioning may naturally compress with significant use. Ensure the shoes are clean, as dirt can sometimes affect the feel. For severe loss of cushioning, consider replacing the shoes.

Difficulty removing the shoes.

While designed for easy slip-on, if the sock upper feels too restrictive, try inserting a shoehorn. Ensure the heel counter is not being caught.

Materials appear worn or dirty.

Refer to the 'Care Instructions' section for appropriate cleaning methods. Gentle cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is recommended for most fabric and foam components.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Designed for adult males, these trainers are compatible with casual and athletic wear. The wide fit makes them suitable for individuals who find standard widths constricting.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be applied sparingly with a cloth, followed by wiping with a clean damp cloth.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Similar to the upper, use a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning of the sole, a soft brush can be used with a mild soap solution.
  3. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as these can damage the materials.
  4. Insoles: If removable, follow separate cleaning instructions for insoles, typically hand washing with mild soap and water, then air drying.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
