FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
The LIGHTMOTION midsole offers cushioning for general comfort and light activity. For marathon running, specialized shoes with advanced support and cushioning would be more appropriate.
How do I clean the suede overlays?
Use a soft brush designed for suede to remove dry dirt. For tougher marks, a damp cloth or a specialized suede cleaner can be used cautiously. Avoid soaking the suede.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is constructed with a combination of textile and synthetic materials, featuring engineered mesh for breathability and suede overlays for style and support.
Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, especially due to the suede components. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and appropriate cleaners is the preferred method.
What is the main advantage of the LIGHTMOTION midsole?
The LIGHTMOTION midsole provides lightweight cushioning, offering a responsive feel and comfort for everyday wear and light activities.
Are these trainers waterproof?
These trainers are not designed to be waterproof. The engineered mesh upper is breathable but will allow water to penetrate.
What is the best way to store these trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat. Using a shoe bag or the original box can help protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the lacing. For tightness, loosen the laces and retie. For looseness, pull the laces tighter.
Suede material appears dirty or matted.
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner.
Outsole has lost grip.
Clean the outsole thoroughly with water and a brush to remove any embedded debris that might be reducing traction.
Interior feels uncomfortable.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. The textile sockliner provides basic comfort, but quality socks enhance the experience.
