These trainers are designed for a neutral foot pronation. If you have a neutral or slightly underpronating gait, they should be a good fit. Consulting a gait analysis or trying them on is recommended.
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the shoes. It is best to clean them by hand with a damp cloth and mild soap.
The GEL technology in the heel is designed to absorb shock during impact, providing enhanced cushioning and a softer feel underfoot, which helps reduce fatigue and discomfort.
The lifespan of the shoes depends on usage frequency, intensity, and individual biomechanics. For regular use in light activities, they typically last between 300-500 miles or 6-12 months.

Ensure shoes are properly aired out after use. Use a shoe deodorizer or baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.
