FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
The Adidas Galaxy 8 trainers are best suited for daily training and shorter to medium-distance runs. For marathon distances, runners might benefit from models with more specialized cushioning and support features.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to the Adidas sizing chart available online, which typically provides measurements in centimeters or inches corresponding to UK shoe sizes. Measure your foot length from heel to toe for the most accurate comparison.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing with mild soap and cold water is the preferred method to preserve the shoe's integrity and materials.
What is the expected lifespan of these shoes?
The lifespan varies based on usage frequency, intensity, and running surface. For regular running (3-4 times a week), expect them to last between 300-500 miles or 6-12 months before significant wear impacts performance.
Do these shoes offer arch support?
The Galaxy 8 trainers provide general support suitable for neutral pronation. They are not specifically designed for severe overpronation or highly customized arch support needs.
What is the difference between Galaxy 7 and Galaxy 8 models?
While specific upgrades can vary year to year, newer models like the Galaxy 8 typically feature minor improvements in cushioning, upper material breathability, and outsole durability compared to previous versions like the Galaxy 7.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure laces are loosened before putting on. If still tight, consider wearing thinner socks or trying a half-size larger if available. The materials may also offer some stretch with wear.
Slipping occurs during runs
Check the outsole for debris. Ensure you are running on appropriate surfaces for the shoe's intended grip. For very wet conditions, consider shoes with more aggressive tread patterns.
Feet feel hot or sweaty
Ensure the shoes are adequately ventilated. If the issue persists, try moisture-wicking socks made from synthetic materials or wool blends.
