FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The Clarks Solevana Tie trainers are designed for casual wear and light walking. They are not specifically engineered for high-impact activities like running and may not provide the necessary support or cushioning for such uses.
How do I ensure the best fit with the laces?
Thread the laces through the eyelets as you normally would, ensuring even tension across the foot. Tie them securely but not so tight as to cause discomfort. You can adjust the tightness daily based on how your feet feel.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and the cushioning of the PillowSoft footbed. Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap as per the care instructions.
What is the 'PillowSoft' feature?
PillowSoft refers to a proprietary cushioning technology used in the footbed of these trainers, designed to provide enhanced comfort and support throughout the day.
Is the sock lining treated for odor control?
The sock lining features a cooling treatment for all-day wear, helping to keep feet dry. While this helps manage moisture, specific odor control treatments are not explicitly mentioned.
What is the primary material of the outsole?
The outsole is made from lightweight, impact-absorbing EVA (Ethylene-vinyl acetate), a common material in athletic and casual footwear known for its cushioning properties.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
Yes, the Solevana Tie model is available in various colorways. Please refer to the product listings for other available options from Clarks.
Troubleshooting
Reduced cushioning over time
While designed for lasting comfort, extensive use may reduce the effectiveness of the PillowSoft footbed. Consider using supportive insoles if additional cushioning is desired.
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot if necessary. If laces are worn or slippery, consider replacing them with a different type of lace.
Feet feeling warm despite cooling treatment
The cooling treatment is most effective in dry conditions. Ensure socks are made of breathable material. If feet remain warm, consider the ambient temperature or level of activity.
Outsole showing signs of wear
EVA outsoles are designed for impact absorption but will naturally wear down with prolonged use. For significant wear, it may be time to consider replacement.
