Product Information

Full details

The Helly Hansen Feathering Trainers are designed for adult males seeking a lightweight, versatile, and eco-conscious footwear option for everyday wear. Their key benefit lies in the combination of a well-cushioned EVA midsole, a grippy outsole, and significant use of recycled materials. A potential caveat is their primary design for casual use rather than high-performance athletic activities.

FAQs

What makes these trainers eco-friendly?

These trainers incorporate a significant amount of recycled materials, including recycled laces, lining, toe box and heel reinforcement, RPET binding and collar, recycled polyester strap, and 30% recycled rubber in the outsole. They are also certified PFC-free.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The Feathering Trainers are designed primarily for lightweight comfort and versatility in casual settings. While they offer good cushioning and flexibility, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact athletic activities like running.

How do I clean the trainers?

Spot clean with a damp cloth for minor marks. For a deeper clean, use a mild soap and water solution. It is recommended to air dry them naturally and avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals.

What is the benefit of the antimicrobial treatment?

The antimicrobial treatment helps to inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria, keeping your feet feeling fresher during and after wear.

Can I replace the laces?

Yes, the laces are made from 100% recycled polyester and can be replaced if they become worn or damaged. Standard trainer laces can be used as replacements.

What type of surfaces are the outsoles best suited for?

The grippy and flexible outsole provides good traction on a variety of surfaces commonly encountered during daily activities, such as pavements, indoor floors, and light trails.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff initially

This is normal for new shoes. Wear them for short periods to break them in gradually. The EVA midsole and flexible outsole will become more pliable with use.

Slight odor after prolonged wear

The antimicrobial treatment helps, but for persistent odors, remove the insoles (if removable) and air them out separately. You can also use a shoe deodorizer spray.

Traction is reduced on wet surfaces

While the outsole is designed for grip, extremely wet or slippery surfaces can challenge any footwear. Exercise caution and ensure the outsole is free from debris that might impede its grip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Environmentally friendly due to extensive use of recycled materials.
  • Comfortable for all-day wear thanks to cushioning and lightweight design.
  • Good grip and flexibility for varied surfaces.
  • Odor control feature enhances freshness.
  • Certified safe with PFC-free materials.

Cons

  • Primarily designed for casual use; may not be suitable for intense sports.
  • While durable, the focus on recycled materials might have different long-term wear characteristics compared to traditional materials.
  • Specific cleaning instructions may be required due to material composition.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no assembly. Simply remove them from the packaging and they are ready for use.

Compatibility: Designed as adult male footwear, compatible with standard UK sizing (example: UK 7.5).

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Spot clean with a damp cloth for minor dirt. For more thorough cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents to protect the materials and construction.
  2. Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat or sunlight, which can damage the materials.
  3. Laces: If laces become excessively dirty, they can be removed for separate cleaning. Ensure they are completely dry before reinserting.
