FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The LIGHTSHIFT 2.0 trainers are designed for light training and casual wear. While they offer some cushioning, they may not provide the specialized support and shock absorption required for serious or long-distance running.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the size guide provided by the retailer. It is generally recommended to try them on if possible, as fit can vary between individuals. The product description mentions a regular fit.

What materials are the trainers made from?

The trainers feature a textile and synthetic upper, a textile sockliner, and a rubber outsole. The upper also incorporates engineered mesh for breathability.

Can these trainers be machine washed?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method for maintaining their integrity and appearance.

What does 'Cold Cement construction' mean?

Cold Cement construction is a method of shoe manufacturing where adhesives are used to bond the sole to the upper at lower temperatures. This can sometimes result in a stiffer feel initially compared to other construction methods.

How do I care for the white/black colorway?

For the white and black colorway, use a damp cloth with mild soap to clean any dirt. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the materials. Ensure they are air-dried completely.

Troubleshooting

Laces are difficult to tie or come undone easily

Ensure the laces are threaded through all eyelets evenly. Consider using a double knot for added security if they are frequently coming undone.

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring even pressure distribution across the foot. If discomfort persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if break-in time is needed.

Traction is poor on certain surfaces

The rubber outsole is designed for general traction. For specific slippery surfaces, consider the limitations of the tread pattern. Ensure the outsole is clean from debris.
