FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they feature a standard fit; it is recommended to order your usual athletic shoe size.

Can I use these for HIIT workouts?

While designed for running, the stable LIGHTMOTION cushioning makes them suitable for gym-based HIIT sessions.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, the insoles can be removed if you need to use your own custom orthotics.

How often should I replace these trainers?

Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles depending on your gait and the surface.

Are these waterproof?

No, they feature a technical mesh upper designed for breathability, so they are not waterproof.

Troubleshooting

Heel slippage while running

Try the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to secure the heel lock more effectively.

Accumulated dirt in mesh

Use a soft-bristled toothbrush to gently agitate and remove debris from the fabric mesh.

Unpleasant odor from extended use

Remove the insoles after running to allow them to air out separately and use moisture-absorbing inserts overnight.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your trainers, it is recommended to use them primarily on flat, hard surfaces. For setup, ensure you lace the shoes snugly but avoid overtightening near the ankle to allow for natural foot swelling during runs. For cleaning, remove surface dirt with a soft brush and use a damp cloth with mild soap for the mesh upper. Avoid submerging the trainers in water or using a washing machine, as high-heat cycles can damage the synthetic materials and the integrity of the LIGHTMOTION midsole cushioning. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators.
