FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
The ARC-1 Runner is predominantly designed for 5-10k runs and active lifestyle wear. While they offer good cushioning, they may not be the optimal choice for the extended mileage of marathon training without additional insoles or considering their intended use.
How do I know if I need to size up?
If your foot measurement falls exactly between two standard sizes, it is recommended to select the larger size for a more comfortable and accommodating fit, especially considering the snug nature of performance trainers.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash the ARC-1 Runner. Cleaning with a damp cloth and soft brush is the preferred method to maintain the integrity of the materials and construction.
What is the purpose of the TPU overlay and heel counter?
The TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) overlay and heel counter are integrated to provide enhanced support to the midfoot and heel, respectively. They help to stabilize your stride and ensure a secure, locked-in feel.
How long does the anti-microbial insock last?
The anti-microbial properties of the insock are designed to help keep the shoes fresh over their lifespan. While effective, regular airing and cleaning will also contribute to maintaining a fresh feel.
What type of runs are these trainers best for?
These trainers are best suited for shorter to medium distance runs (5-10k), interval training, tempo runs, and everyday active lifestyle wear.
Does the dust bag offer protection against water?
The provided dust bag is made of nylon and is intended for protection against dust, scuffs, and light abrasion during storage. It does not offer protection against water.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels tight
As per recommendation, if you are between sizes, try the next size up for a more comfortable fit. The materials will adapt slightly over time, but proper initial sizing is key.
Reduced cushioning over time
The EVA midsole provides long-lasting cushioning, but performance may decrease after extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes if cushioning feels significantly diminished.
Poor traction on wet surfaces
The minimal rubber outsole is optimized for general use. For running in wet conditions, exercise caution and consider shoes with deeper tread patterns if necessary.
