FAQs
What type of activity are these trainers best suited for?
These trainers are ideal for everyday wear, walking, and light athletic activities. They offer good comfort and support for general use.
How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?
For suede, use a suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and a damp cloth, then brush gently once dry.
Is the LIGHTMOTION midsole suitable for long runs?
The LIGHTMOTION midsole is designed for lightweight cushioning for everyday comfort. For long-distance running, dedicated running shoes with more advanced cushioning and support might be more appropriate.
Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, especially due to the suede overlays and textile components, as it can damage the materials and construction.
What does 'Cold Cement construction' mean?
Cold Cement construction is a method of attaching the sole to the upper using adhesives at lower temperatures. It's a common method for many trainers, contributing to flexibility and lighter weight.
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
These trainers feature a 'Regular Fit'. While they are not specifically designed for wide feet, the lace-up closure allows for some adjustment. For wider feet, it's advisable to try them on or consider models specifically designed for wider fits.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is constructed from a combination of engineered mesh for breathability and suede overlays for structure and style.
Troubleshooting
Laces come undone easily
Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot. Consider replacing laces if they are worn or slippery.
Discomfort during wear
Ensure the correct size is being worn. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods initially. Check that the sockliner is correctly positioned.
Suede appearing worn or dirty
Refer to the care instructions for suede cleaning. Regular brushing can help maintain the texture.
Slipping on smooth surfaces
The rubber outsole provides traction, but performance can be reduced on extremely wet or polished surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris.
