FAQs

What makes the ABZORB cushioning unique?

ABZORB SBS cushioning pods are designed to provide superior shock absorption and a responsive feel, particularly in the rear and forefoot of the shoe, enhancing overall comfort.

How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a dedicated suede cleaner is recommended. Always test any cleaning product on a small, hidden area first and avoid excessive water.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The ABZORB 2010 trainers are designed for comfort and style, suitable for casual wear and light athletic activities. For intense running, dedicated running shoes might be more appropriate.

What is the purpose of the TPU midfoot shank?

The translucent TPU midfoot shank provides structural support and stability through the middle of the shoe, connecting the cushioned heel and forefoot sections.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the materials offer some protection, prolonged exposure to wet conditions is not recommended, especially for the suede components, which can stain or be damaged by water.

What does 'Raincloud' mesh refer to?

'Raincloud' refers to the specific grey colouration and texture of the mesh used in the upper construction of the trainers.

How do the reflective accents work?

The reflective accents are designed to catch and reflect light in low-light conditions, increasing the wearer's visibility to others.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Use a suede brush to gently lift dirt. For stains, apply a specialized suede cleaner according to product instructions. Test cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

Mesh feels less breathable.

Ensure the mesh is free from debris. If it has been exposed to excessive dust or dirt, a gentle cleaning with a damp cloth may help restore airflow.

Discomfort during initial wear.

New shoes can take a short period to break in. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the correct size is being worn.

Reflective accents are less prominent.

Ensure the reflective surfaces are clean. Dirt or scuffs can diminish their reflectivity. Gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth.
