FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and structural integrity of the trainers; spot cleaning is recommended.
Can I use these for long-distance marathon training?
While they provide great cushioning for general workouts, marathon runners often prefer higher stability models; evaluate based on your personal need for arch support.
Are they true to size?
These trainers are designed to standard UK sizing, but we recommend wearing your preferred athletic socks during fitting.
Are these shoes suitable for wet weather?
The non-slip tread offers good grip, but the breathable synthetic upper is not waterproof and may absorb water in heavy rain.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are typically removable if you need to insert your own custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping inside the shoe
Re-tie the laces using a 'runner's loop' or double knot to lock the heel in place.
Accumulation of dust in the tread
Use a dry bristle brush to knock debris out of the grooves after use to maintain traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your trainers, start by adjusting the laces for a snug but non-restrictive fit before your first run. These trainers are standard UK size 8.5, and it is recommended to pair them with moisture-wicking athletic socks to maintain the benefits of the breathable upper. For care, avoid machine washing; instead, spot clean with a soft brush and mild detergent to remove surface dirt. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally in a shaded, well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the synthetic materials and foam.
