FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The Anakin trainers are designed primarily for urban lifestyle and casual wear, prioritizing comfort and style. While they offer good grip, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact athletic activities like running.

How do I maintain the waterproof suede?

To maintain the waterproof suede, clean it with a suede brush and avoid using excessive water. For stains, use a suede eraser. After cleaning and ensuring the shoe is dry, applying a water-repellent spray designed for suede will help preserve its water-resistant properties.

What does 'Antimicrobial treatment' mean?

The antimicrobial treatment helps to inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria within the shoe, helping to keep your feet feeling fresher for longer.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, suede, and adhesives. Hand-wash specific components as per the care instructions provided.

What is the HH Max-Grip sole?

HH Max-Grip is Helly Hansen's proprietary outsole technology designed to provide superior traction and stability on a variety of urban surfaces, ensuring you have excellent grip wherever you go.

Are the recycled materials used in these trainers certified?

Yes, the product information indicates the use of 100% recycled lining, toe box, and heel reinforcement. The leather is also LWG certified, signifying responsible leather tanning.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Helly Hansen. Since fit can vary, it's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the chart. Reading customer reviews for sizing feedback can also be helpful.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from shoes

This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try to identify the source of the squeak (e.g., tongue rubbing against laces). A small amount of talcum powder or saddle soap applied to the area might help. Ensure the laces are not over-tightened.

Water spots on suede

Allow the suede to dry naturally. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the nap. For stubborn spots, a suede eraser may be used. Consider applying a water-repellent spray specifically for suede after cleaning.

Discomfort after wearing

Ensure you have the correct size. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods initially. If discomfort persists, check for any internal seams or rough spots. The insoles are designed for comfort, but personal fit may vary.

Reduced grip on surfaces

Check the HH Max-Grip sole for embedded debris like small stones or mud. Clean the sole thoroughly with a brush and water. Wear and tear can also affect grip over time; inspect the tread for significant wear.
