FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the BOOST midsole?

The BOOST midsole is engineered to provide exceptional energy return with every step, offering superior cushioning and comfort.

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

These trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer excellent comfort, they are not specialized for high-impact athletic performance like marathon running.

How much recycled content is in the upper?

The upper contains a minimum of 50% recycled content.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, particularly the suede upper and BOOST midsole.

What is the recommended way to clean the suede upper?

Use a soft brush for general dirt and a specialized suede cleaner for stains. Always test cleaners on a small, hidden area first and avoid soaking the suede.

What do the iridescent details add to the shoe?

The iridescent details on the heel and outsole add a futuristic and eye-catching aesthetic to the shoe's design.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the shoes are new, they may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially.

Suede upper looks dirty or stained

Use a suede brush to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole provides grip, but performance on extremely wet surfaces may be limited. Ensure the outsole is clean and free of debris.

BOOST midsole feels less responsive over time

While BOOST is durable, its properties can naturally change with extensive use. Proper care and avoiding excessive heat can help maintain its performance.
