Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these shoes good for running?

These trainers are primarily designed for weightlifting and strength training, focusing on stability. They are not optimized for running or high-impact cardiovascular activities.

How do I clean the mesh upper?

Gently clean the mesh upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing to preserve the material's integrity and breathability.

What does the TPU midfoot torsion system do?

The TPU midfoot torsion system provides stability during dynamic movements by limiting unwanted twisting of the shoe, supporting controlled transitions between exercises.

Is the wide fit suitable for all foot types?

The wide fit is designed to offer a stable base and comfort for many users during training. However, individual foot shapes vary, and it's recommended to try them on if possible.

Can I wear these for CrossFit?

Yes, these trainers are well-suited for many aspects of CrossFit, particularly for lifting and foundational strength components. Their stability and support are beneficial for Olympic lifts and squats.

What is the main benefit of the REPETITOR midsole?

The REPETITOR midsole offers a combination of responsive cushioning and durability, contributing to the shoe's stable platform and comfort during training sessions.

How should I store these trainers when not in use?

Store the trainers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, to maintain their material quality and shape.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or narrow

Loosen the laces and adjust the fit. If the issue persists, consider if this specific model's wide fit is suitable for your foot shape or if a different size is needed.

Lack of cushioning for high-impact activities

These trainers are optimized for stability, not high-impact cushioning. For activities like running, consider a shoe specifically designed for that purpose.

Traction issues on certain surfaces

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. While designed for gym floors, performance may vary on extremely smooth or wet surfaces.

Mesh upper feels flimsy

The mesh is designed for breathability and flexibility. It is reinforced to withstand training demands, but avoid excessive abrasion or sharp objects.
