FAQs
What materials are used in the construction of these Track Runners?
The upper is made from a combination of polyurethane, polyester, and nylon, providing a leather-free build. The sole consists of rubber, EVA, and TPU, with a gel insole for enhanced cushioning.
Are these shoes heavy due to their chunky design?
While they have a substantial appearance, the combination of mesh, nylon, and lightweight synthetic sole materials aims to balance the chunky aesthetic with a manageable weight for everyday wear.
How should I clean my Balenciaga Track Runners?
You should wipe them gently with a soft, clean cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or washing machines, as these can damage the materials and the unique 'washed effect' finish.
What does the 'washed effect' on the shoes refer to?
The 'washed effect' is an intentional design element that gives the shoes a pre-distressed, well-worn, and vintage aesthetic right out of the box, contributing to their unique style.
Is an extra pair of laces included?
Yes, one additional pair of laces is included with your Track Runners, allowing for replacement or a different lacing style.
Where are these Balenciaga Track Runners manufactured?
These Balenciaga Track Runners are made in China.
Troubleshooting
The 'washed effect' on my shoes looks like wear and tear.
The 'washed effect' is an intentional design feature that gives the shoes a pre-worn, vintage-inspired look. It is part of the product's aesthetic and not a defect. Follow the care instructions to maintain its integrity.
Laces seem to come undone easily, despite being pre-knotted.
While the laces are pre-knotted in a specific style, their length and material can sometimes lead to loosening. Ensure you tie them securely, possibly using a double knot, especially with the additional pair of laces provided, for a more reliable hold during active use.
The shoes feel stiff or less comfortable than expected initially.
Like many new shoes, especially those with a structured sole, your Track Runners may require a brief break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations at first to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks for optimal comfort.
