FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running long distances?

While they offer good cushioning for walking and light jogging, they are primarily designed for cross-training and everyday comfort. For dedicated long-distance running, specialized running shoes might offer more targeted support and cushioning.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash or tumble dry these trainers, as it can damage the materials and construction. Hand clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry.

What is the main benefit of the Flex Pillars?

The Flex Pillars provide enhanced stability and flexible traction on various surfaces, making the shoes ideal for multi-directional movements and different terrains.

How does the Air-Cooled Goga Mat insole contribute to comfort?

The Air-Cooled Goga Mat insole offers high-rebound cushioning, which means it returns energy with each step, and it also promotes air circulation to keep your feet cool and comfortable.

What type of activities are these trainers best suited for?

These trainers are best suited for walking, cross-training, gym workouts, travel, and casual everyday wear due to their lightweight, cushioned, and supportive design.

Do these trainers offer good arch support?

The Air-Cooled Goga Mat insole provides high-rebound cushioning and general support. For individuals requiring very specific or enhanced arch support, consider using aftermarket insoles.

How do I clean the engineered mesh upper?

Use a soft brush or damp cloth with a mild soap and water solution to gently clean the mesh. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure the stretch laces are not overly tightened. The engineered mesh and stretch laces are designed to offer a flexible fit; allow a short break-in period.

Slipping sensation

Confirm the shoe size is correct. If the issue persists, consider adding a thin, supportive sock. Ensure the surfaces you are walking on are not excessively wet or oily.

Reduced cushioning over time

The cushioning technology is designed for longevity, but like all footwear, it will gradually wear. For prolonged comfort, consider replacing the shoes after significant wear, typically several hundred miles of use.

Difficulty removing the shoe

Gently pull the heel tab while sliding your foot out. The slip-on design might feel snug initially for a secure fit. Ensure your socks are not snagging.
