FAQs
What type of running is this shoe best suited for?
The 247 Arc-1 Runner is predominantly designed for 5-10k runs and active lifestyle wear. It offers good cushioning and support for these distances.
How should I determine my size if I'm between sizes?
The product information advises taking the next size up if you are in between sizes to ensure a comfortable and accurate fit.
How do I clean the trainers?
Clean the trainers using a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemicals. Always air dry away from direct heat.
What is the benefit of the anti-microbial insock?
The anti-microbial insock helps to keep the inside of the shoe feeling fresh, reducing odors even with frequent use.
Does the shoe come with a dust bag?
Yes, each pair comes with a purpose-built 247 Branded Nylon Dust Bag that features an internal divider for protection and organization.
Can I use these trainers for longer distances like marathons?
While they offer good cushioning, they are primarily optimized for 5-10k runs. For marathon distances, you might consider shoes specifically designed for ultra-long runs, though these can still be used for shorter efforts within a marathon training plan.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or small.
If you are between sizes, try the next size up as recommended. If already purchased, consider wearing them with thinner socks or allow for a short break-in period.
Lack of support during runs.
Ensure the laces are tied correctly for a secure midfoot fit. The TPU overlay provides support, but proper lacing is crucial.
Foot feels damp or sweaty.
While the mesh is breathable, intense activity can still lead to moisture. Ensure the insock is functioning correctly and consider moisture-wicking socks.
Traction issues on wet surfaces.
The minimal rubber outsole provides good traction, but performance may be reduced on very wet or slick surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.
