FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?

While they feature performance-based technology from their history, they are primarily lifestyle trainers intended for casual use rather than modern competitive distance running.

How do I ensure a proper fit?

The shoes feature a regular fit with a lace closure. We recommend wearing the type of socks you intend to use daily when measuring your feet for the best results.

Can I wear these in rainy weather?

While the rubber outsole provides good grip, the open-mesh upper is designed for breathability and will not keep feet dry in heavy rain.

How do I clean the metallic overlays?

Simply wipe them with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubs that could damage the metallic finish.

What is the best way to store these trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the materials and colors to fade over time.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming undone during activity

Ensure you are using a double knot or check that the eyelets are free of debris to allow for proper tensioning.

Surface dirt on mesh

Use a damp, soft cloth to spot clean the mesh areas and allow them to air dry completely in a well-ventilated room.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High breathability due to open-mesh design
  • Sturdy construction suitable for daily urban wear
  • Iconic, trendy retro aesthetic
  • Dependable traction on pavement and flat surfaces

Cons

  • Not intended for modern high-performance long-distance racing
  • Limited to casual city use rather than specialized athletic training
  • Specific chunky profile may not suit those seeking a minimalist look

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The shoes arrive ready for immediate use with a standard lace-up system. For optimal care, it is recommended to keep them dry and away from direct heat sources. To maintain the appearance of the mesh and metallic overlays, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt after each wear. If the shoes become damp, stuff them with newspaper to help retain their shape and absorb internal moisture overnight. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the synthetic materials and the integrity of the metallic details.
