FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While they offer some cushioning, these shoes are primarily designed for stability and support during training activities like weightlifting and cross-training. They are not optimized for long-distance running.

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

The wide fit provides extra room in the forefoot and midfoot. If you typically find standard-width shoes constricting, or if you have naturally wider feet, this fit should be more comfortable. Trying them on is the best way to confirm.

What is the 'REPETITOR' midsole?

REPETITOR is a midsole technology from Adidas designed to provide firm, responsive cushioning and stability, essential for lifting and dynamic training movements.

Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?

The rubber outsole provides grip, but the textile upper is not waterproof. These shoes are best suited for dry indoor training environments.

How durable is the rubber outsole?

The rubber outsole is designed for durability and to withstand the demands of regular training sessions, offering good traction and wear resistance.

What type of training are these shoes best for?

These shoes are best for gym workouts, weightlifting, cross-training, and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) where stability and a secure fit are crucial.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not overtightened, especially over the instep. If the width is the issue, consider if the wide fit is sufficient or if alternative models might be better suited.

Slipping during workouts

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. Check that the laces are tied securely to prevent foot movement within the shoe.

Midsole feels too firm

The REPETITOR midsole is designed for stability; it will offer less plush cushioning than a running shoe. Wear them for a few training sessions to allow them to break in. Ensure you are using them for their intended training purposes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure they are laced to your preferred tightness for a secure fit before your first workout.
