FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and light activities. While they offer good support, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact running.
How do I know if I have the right size?
The shoes should feel snug but not tight, with enough room in the toe box. The Arch Fit technology works best when the shoe conforms to your foot's natural shape.
Can I wear these without socks?
Yes, the breathable knit upper and comfortable lining are designed for comfortable wear with or without socks.
What makes them vegan-friendly?
The trainers are constructed using 100% vegan materials, meaning no animal products or by-products are used in their manufacturing.
How often should I machine wash them?
Machine wash as needed when they appear dirty or lose their freshness. Avoid overwashing to maintain the integrity of the materials.
What is the benefit of the bungee closure?
The bungee closure provides a secure, slip-on fit that can be easily adjusted for personalized comfort, eliminating the need for traditional laces.
Do they offer good traction?
The outsole is designed for casual walking and light activities, providing adequate traction on most surfaces. For very slippery conditions, caution is advised.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the bungee laces by tightening or loosening them to achieve a custom fit. Ensure you have selected the correct shoe size.
Reduced arch support over time.
While the Arch Fit technology is durable, for very specific arch needs, consider adding a supportive insole. Ensure the shoes are not being used for high-impact activities that exceed their intended design.
Difficulty cleaning.
Follow the machine washable instructions carefully using cold water on a gentle cycle. For persistent stains on the upper, a damp cloth can be used for spot cleaning.
Knit upper feels damp after use in wet conditions.
This is normal due to the breathable nature of the knit material. Ensure the shoes are thoroughly air-dried after exposure to moisture.
