FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for athletic activities?
The Union Wharf 2.0 EK+ Trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. While they offer good support, they are not intended for high-impact sports or rigorous athletic training.
How do I know if I have the right size?
The trainers should fit snugly but comfortably, with enough room for your toes to move freely. Refer to the sizing chart and try them on with the type of socks you typically wear to ensure a proper fit.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, particularly the sustainable upper and EVA insole. Hand cleaning as per the care instructions is advised.
What does 'Refibra technology' mean?
Refibra technology is a sustainable process that recycles cotton scraps and wood pulp to create new Tencel Lyocell fibers. This reduces waste and the environmental impact of textile production.
How durable is the eco-friendly upper?
The upper is crafted for lightweight durability using Tencel Lyocell fibers with Refibra technology. While durable for everyday wear, it's important to follow care instructions to maintain its appearance and integrity.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, these trainers are not waterproof. They are designed with breathability in mind. For wet conditions, consider using a water-repellent spray suitable for fabric footwear.
What is the benefit of the mesh lining?
The mesh lining enhances breathability, helping to keep your feet cool and dry by allowing air circulation. This also contributes to preventing odors and ensuring a comfortable fit throughout the day.
Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort after initial wear
Allow a break-in period of a few wears. The EVA insole and natural fibers will adapt to your foot shape over time. Ensure the correct size has been selected.
Mesh lining feels too breathable in cold weather
Consider wearing thicker socks during colder conditions. These trainers prioritize ventilation for warmer wear.
Stains on the eco-friendly upper
For fresh stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For persistent stains, use a soft brush with a minimal amount of water and mild soap, then wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
Odor developing inside the trainers
The breathable mesh lining helps prevent odors, but to maintain freshness, ensure feet are dry before wearing and allow trainers to air out after use. Removable insoles can be washed and dried separately.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: To clean the Tencel Lyocell and Refibra technology upper, use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to gently remove surface dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the sustainable fibers.
- Cleaning the Insole: The EVA insole can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, remove the insole and wash it with mild soap and water, then allow it to air dry completely before reinserting.
- Drying: Always allow the trainers to air dry naturally. Avoid direct heat sources such as radiators or tumble dryers, as these can degrade the materials.
- Water Protection: While the mesh lining offers breathability, the trainers are not waterproof. For protection against light moisture, consider using a water-repellent spray suitable for fabric footwear, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
