Product Information
Full details
The adidas Galaxy 7 is designed for female runners seeking a reliable, entry-level trainer to support their transition from casual exercise to consistent 5K training. Its primary strength lies in the comfortable Cloudfoam midsole that cushions every stride, making it ideal for those focused on endurance building; however, it is specifically optimized for road running and may lack the aggressive traction needed for technical trail terrain.

FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Galaxy 7 generally fits true to standard UK sizing for a secure, regular fit.
Can I use these for marathon training?
These are ideal for 5K training; for longer endurance events like marathons, you may eventually want a shoe with more specialized stability features.
Are these waterproof?
No, they feature a breathable textile upper, so they are not waterproof.
What is the midsole drop?
The shoe has a 6mm drop, with 34mm in the heel and 28mm in the forefoot.
Can I wash these in the machine?
It is not recommended, as machine washing can damage the shoe's structural integrity and cushioning.
Is this model suitable for wide feet?
The Galaxy 7 has a regular fit. If you have wide feet, consider testing them with thinner socks or trying on a half-size larger.
Troubleshooting
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Tighten the laces using a runner's loop or double knot to secure the heel.
Feeling 'bottomed out' after many miles
Check if the midsole has compressed significantly; most running shoes are recommended for replacement every 300-500 miles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Galaxy 7 trainers last, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Lace Adjustment: Use the lace closure system to customize the midfoot lockdown; ensure they are snug but not tight enough to restrict blood flow.
- Break-in Period: Wear them for short walking sessions before your first long-distance run to allow the textile upper to conform to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush. If needed, spot clean the textile upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using a washing machine, as this can degrade the foam and adhesive.
- Air Drying: Always air dry at room temperature. Never expose the shoes to direct heat sources like heaters or tumble dryers, as this will damage the midsole material.
