FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is not recommended to wash these in a machine. Hand-cleaning is safer for the integrity of the materials and cushioning.
Can I use these for marathon running?
While they provide great support for daily activity, they are not categorized as high-performance marathon racing shoes.
What surface is best for these trainers?
They perform best on road surfaces, tracks, and indoor gym flooring.
How should I store them to maintain their shape?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and consider using shoe trees to help them retain their structural shape.
Do these shoes run true to size?
The Galaxy 8 is designed to standard sizing; if you use thick orthopedic inserts, you may consider a half-size larger.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels slightly loose during movement
Adjust the lacing pattern using the top eyelet to create a 'runner's loop' for a more secure heel lock.
Visible surface stains on the fabric
Spot clean gently using a soft-bristled brush and a solution of warm water mixed with a small amount of non-abrasive detergent.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, wear your preferred athletic socks when trying on the shoes to gauge the internal volume accurately. The Galaxy 8 trainers are compatible with custom orthotics if you require specific arch support adjustments. For care, keep the shoes away from high-heat sources like radiators or dryers, as excessive heat can degrade the foam cushioning and adhesives. To clean, remove loose debris with a soft brush and wipe the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid fully submerging the trainers in a washing machine.
