FAQs
Is this shoe suitable for professional running?
While it retains its performance-running DNA, this model is a retro re-release best suited for lifestyle and casual wear rather than modern high-intensity training.
Does this model fit true to size?
Yes, the ProGrid Guide 7 generally follows standard UK sizing conventions for adult trainers.
What is the primary difference between this and modern running shoes?
This model focuses on the aesthetic and structural profile of the early 2000s, whereas modern running shoes often feature lighter, high-energy-return foam technologies.
Can I replace the insoles?
The insoles are generally removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required for a more personalized fit.
How do I ensure the color remains vibrant?
Keep the shoes out of direct, prolonged sunlight when not in use to prevent color fading, and clean them regularly to prevent dirt from dulling the surface.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the upper material
Use a shoe tree when not in use to help the upper retain its shape and minimize excessive creasing.
Dirt buildup in mesh sections
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dry dirt from the mesh areas before wiping with a damp cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal wear, ensure you select the appropriate UK size for your foot width to take advantage of the structured support. The shoes are compatible with standard athletic lacing systems for a customized fit. To care for your trainers, avoid machine washing to maintain the material integrity. Instead, clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping or adhesive breakdown.
