FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

These trainers are designed for general comfort and light athletic activities. For dedicated running, we recommend specialized running shoes that offer specific support and cushioning for high-impact impact.

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

If you typically find standard-width shoes too tight or uncomfortable around the forefoot, the wide fit is likely a good choice. The wider base provides more room and reduces pressure points.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The synthetic leather upper offers some resistance to light moisture, but these trainers are not waterproof. They are best worn in dry conditions. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain.

What is the primary benefit of the CLOUDFOAM midsole?

The CLOUDFOAM midsole provides exceptional softness and cushioning, absorbing shock and offering a comfortable feel with every step, making them ideal for all-day wear.

How do I clean the synthetic leather upper?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the surface clean. For tougher marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a clean damp cloth. Always allow the shoes to air dry.

What is the weight of these trainers?

These trainers weigh approximately 631 grams, making them relatively lightweight for comfortable wear throughout the day.

Troubleshooting

Slightly stiff upon first wear.

This is normal for new trainers. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time to break them in. Gentle flexing of the shoe can also help.

Laces coming undone frequently.

Ensure the laces are tied securely using a double knot. If the lace material is particularly smooth, consider a different lacing technique or replacing the laces with ones that offer more grip.

Discomfort in the arch area.

While the CLOUDFOAM offers general cushioning, it may not provide specific arch support. Consider using an aftermarket insole designed for arch support if needed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent cushioning for comfort during extended wear.
  • Durable synthetic leather upper is easy to maintain.
  • Breathable textile sockliner keeps feet comfortable.
  • Adjustable lace closure for a secure fit.
  • Accommodates wider feet for improved comfort.

Cons

  • May require a short break-in period.
  • Not designed for intense, high-impact sports.
  • Sole grip might be less effective on very wet surfaces.
  • Synthetic leather may not offer the same breathability as mesh.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup. Simply wear them. Ensure the laces are adjusted for a comfortable and secure fit.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult males. The UK 8.5 size is specific to this variant. They are compatible with a wide range of casual wear.

Care Instructions: To clean the trainers, use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt from the synthetic leather upper and textile areas. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can damage the materials and construction. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
