FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running long distances?

These trainers are optimized for training and lifting. While they can handle short sprints, they are not designed for long-distance running, which requires specialized running shoes.

How do I know if the wide fit is right for me?

If you find standard athletic shoes constrictive, or if your feet tend to swell during workouts, the wide fit is likely beneficial. Trying them on is the best way to confirm.

Can I wear these in wet conditions?

The rubber outsole provides grip, but the textile upper is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry indoor environments. Avoid use in heavy rain or very wet conditions.

What is the REPETITOR midsole made of?

The REPETITOR midsole is a proprietary adidas foam compound designed to offer a balance of cushioning, stability, and durability for training activities.

How often should I clean my training shoes?

It's recommended to wipe them down after each use if visibly dirty. A more thorough cleaning can be done as needed, typically every few weeks depending on usage.

What is the expected lifespan of these shoes?

The lifespan varies based on frequency of use, training intensity, and maintenance. With proper care and regular cleaning, they can last for a significant period of dedicated training.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight initially

The shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly.

Slipping during lateral movements

Check that the outsole is clean and free from debris. Ensure the laces are tied securely to maximize lockdown.

Reduced cushioning over time

While the REPETITOR midsole is durable, significant wear can reduce its responsiveness. Consider replacement if cushioning feels significantly diminished after extensive use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure the laces are adjusted to your preferred tightness for a secure fit before your first use.

Compatibility: Designed for general training, cross-training, gym workouts, and lifting. They are suitable for use on various indoor training surfaces.

Care: To clean, use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For more stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Allow to air dry naturally, away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can damage the materials and construction. Regular cleaning will help maintain the shoe's performance and lifespan.
