FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?

How do I know if I've chosen the right size?
Refer to the brand's official sizing chart for accurate measurements. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the chart. Trying them on in person is always the most reliable method if possible.

What does 'Y2K-inspired' mean for the design?

How should I care for the metallic details?
Clean the metallic details gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals that could scratch or dull the finish.
What is the primary benefit of the Grid cushioning?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose.
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Refer to sizing charts and consider trying them on before purchase if possible. Adjust lacing for a snugger or looser fit.
Discomfort after a short period of wear.
Break in the shoes by wearing them for short durations initially. Ensure socks are appropriate for the shoe to avoid friction.
