These trainers offer a plush, breathable experience thanks to the lightweight polyester upper and EVA midsole, though users should note they are primarily engineered for casual or introductory road running rather than intense, high-mileage marathons.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?

The Viva Speed is designed primarily for introductory and shorter daily training sessions rather than high-mileage marathon training.

Can I use these for trail running?

These shoes are built for road and gym surfaces; they do not have the rugged lug depth required for technical trail terrain.

What is the primary material used in the upper?

The upper is constructed from polyester, which provides lightweight durability and essential breathability.

Are these trainers true to size?

Yes, they are manufactured to standard UK sizing, but it is recommended to ensure you have a thumb's width of space at the front for optimal comfort.

Can the insoles be removed?

Yes, the insoles are removable, which is helpful if you need to use custom orthotics or if you need to air out the shoes thoroughly.

How often should I replace these trainers?

Generally, trainers should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on the intensity of use and the surface you run on.

Troubleshooting

Feeling of slipping or instability

Ensure the laces are tensioned properly across the midfoot to secure the heel, and check if the outsole grip is worn out.

Midsole feels less cushioned than when new

EVA foam naturally compresses over time. If you have exceeded the typical 300-500 mile lifespan, it may be time to replace the pair for continued joint protection.

Odour buildup in the shoes

Remove the insoles after use to allow for complete drying and use a shoe freshener spray if necessary.

Pros and Cons

  • Not intended for long-distance professional racing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Viva Speed trainers maintain their integrity, it is important to handle them with standard athletic footwear care. When setting up, ensure you select your correct UK size to avoid excessive toe box pressure or heel slippage. For cleaning, remove loose dirt after runs using a soft-bristled brush. If the polyester upper becomes soiled, spot clean using a mild detergent and lukewarm water; do not submerge in a washing machine as this can compromise the EVA foam properties. Air dry your shoes naturally in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources to prevent the glue from degrading or the material from shrinking.
