FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the platform sole?
The lightweight platform sole provides enhanced cushioning and adds a subtle height boost without compromising the overall comfort and lightness of the trainer.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
While comfortable for walking and casual wear, these trainers are designed for everyday urban use and light activity, not high-impact running. They lack the specialized support and cushioning required for serious athletic training.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the product's sizing chart and your usual UK shoe size. The traditional lacing system allows for some adjustability to achieve a snug fit.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
The technical mesh upper is breathable but not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain.
What kind of socks are best to wear with these trainers?
For maximum comfort and to aid breathability, moisture-wicking socks made of cotton blends or synthetic athletic materials are recommended.
How should I store the trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or a breathable bag, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain their material integrity.
Do these trainers offer arch support?
They feature a cushioned footbed for comfort. While providing general support, they may not offer significant specialized arch support for individuals with specific foot conditions. An orthotic insole could be considered if additional support is needed.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not pulled too tight. Check if the size is correct; consider trying a half-size up if persistent discomfort occurs.
Feet feel warm or sweaty
The breathable mesh helps, but on very hot days, ensure socks are made of moisture-wicking material. Allow shoes to air out after use.
Slight squeaking sound
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or around the seams where the sound originates.
Dirt or scuff marks on the sole
Use a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap or a dedicated shoe cleaner to gently scrub the marks. Wipe clean with a fresh damp cloth.

Setup: These trainers require no setup. Simply unbox, try them on, and adjust the laces for a comfortable and secure fit.
Compatibility: Designed for adult women, these trainers are compatible with a wide range of casual and athletic wear. They are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions due to the mesh upper.
Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris. For tougher stains on the mesh, a mild soap and water solution can be applied gently with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Cleaning the Sole: The sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Stubborn marks can be tackled with a specialized shoe cleaner designed for rubber soles.
- Drying: Air dry the trainers completely away from direct heat sources like radiators or prolonged sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
- Laces: Laces can be removed and hand-washed with mild soap and water, then air-dried.
