FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
The Downshifter 13 is designed for light activities and daily wear. While suitable for short jogs, they are not specifically engineered for high-mileage distance running.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
There should be a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to allow for natural foot swelling during movement.
Can I put these trainers in the dryer?
No. Never put your trainers in the dryer as the high heat can warp the sole and ruin the adhesive bonds.
Are they waterproof?
The materials used are breathable, which means they are not waterproof and may absorb moisture in heavy rain.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is crafted from lightweight, breathable synthetic textiles designed to promote ventilation.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight during wear
Adjust the lacing tension throughout the eyelets to allow for more volume, or consider using thinner socks.
Surface stains on the white material
Gently scrub the area with a mixture of mild detergent and water, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
Reduced traction on smooth surfaces
Check the outsole for lodged debris or stones that may be compromising contact with the floor.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Downshifter 13 trainers provide the best experience, ensure you have selected your correct UK adult size for a snug but non-restrictive fit. Because these feature a primarily white finish, keeping them clean is essential for maintaining their aesthetic. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove loose dirt from the surface after outdoor use. For deeper cleaning, spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid submerging the shoes fully in water or placing them in a washing machine, as this can degrade the materials and cushioning adhesive. Always allow them to air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources to preserve the shape and integrity of the sole.
