FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathons?

These trainers are best suited for training runs up to 10k. For marathon distances, you may prefer a shoe with more specialized long-distance energy return technology.

Can I use these for gym workouts?

Yes, their stable platform and durable grip make them excellent for general gym training and cardio workouts.

Are they waterproof?

No, the mesh upper is designed for breathability and will allow water to pass through in wet conditions.

How should I clean the outsole?

Use a stiff brush to remove pebbles and debris from the treads, then wipe with a damp cloth.

Do these run true to size?

They generally follow standard athletic sizing. It is recommended to have a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.

Troubleshooting

Foot slipping inside the shoe

Adjust the laces using a 'runner's loop' or heel-lock lacing technique to increase tension around the ankle.

Mesh becoming dirty or discolored

Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a mild soap solution and a soft-bristled brush to gently scrub the fabric, then air dry away from direct sunlight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best experience, always wear the shoes with appropriate moisture-wicking athletic socks to prevent friction. When sizing, please be aware that the manufacturer box may reflect international sizing (US/Euro) which differs from UK standards; verify your fit before removing tags. To clean, remove loose dirt with a soft brush and wipe the mesh upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or using high-heat drying, as these methods can degrade the foam cushioning and adhesives.
