FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the ProGrid Guide 7?

The primary benefit is the combination of a classic retro aesthetic with modern comfort and protection, making them suitable for both running and casual wear.

Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

While they offer good protection and comfort, they are best suited for daily training and shorter to moderate distance runs. For marathon distances, highly specialized racing shoes might offer superior performance.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The shoe should feel snug but not tight, with no heel slippage.

What kind of surfaces are these trainers best for?

They are versatile and suitable for road running, light trails, and general everyday wear.

Does the retro design impact functionality?

The retro design is primarily aesthetic. The underlying construction focuses on providing comfort and protection, maintaining its running DNA from the early 2000s.

Are there other color options available?

This specific model is in the Grey/Cyan color family, but other color variations might exist within the ProGrid Guide series or as sibling products.

What is the MPN for this specific shoe?

The MPN for this shoe is S70936-29.

Troubleshooting

Unusual squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try wearing them for a few more runs. If it persists, check for any loose parts or debris within the sole.

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure the correct size and width are selected. Try different lacing techniques to adjust the fit around the foot. Consider wearing thicker or thinner socks as needed.

Reduced cushioning over time

The cushioning will naturally compress with use. For optimal performance, consider replacing the shoes after 300-500 miles of running, or when you notice a significant decrease in support.

Care Instructions:

  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their shape and material integrity.
