FAQs
Are the Galaxy 8 trainers suitable for long-distance running?
They are ideal for casual runs and light athletic activities. While comfortable, they are intended for everyday use rather than competitive distance racing.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the structural integrity and the performance foam of the shoe. Use hand cleaning methods instead.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Yes, they feature a standard fit, so you should generally order the size you typically wear in athletic footwear.
What surface types are these shoes best for?
These are optimized for pavement, asphalt, and concrete surfaces.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the textile insoles can be removed for cleaning or to accommodate custom orthotics if necessary.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
No, the textile upper is designed for breathability rather than water resistance. Avoid heavy rain or deep puddles to keep your feet dry.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels too tight across the midfoot
Loosen the lacing pattern at the arch to allow more volume and adjust the tension until the pressure is relieved.
Accumulated dirt on the textile upper
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dry dirt before wiping with a damp cloth; do not use harsh chemical cleaners.
Outsole losing grip on wet pavement
Wipe the bottom of the synthetic outsole with a damp cloth to remove any debris or oils that may have collected during use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the most out of your Galaxy 8 trainers begins with ensuring the correct size; the standard fit is designed for an average foot, so select your regular athletic shoe size. To maintain the shoes, avoid machine washing as it can degrade the adhesive and foam integrity. Instead, clean the textile upper by gently wiping with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. If the insoles become damp after a run, remove them and allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping. Always ensure laces are fully loosened before taking the shoes off to preserve the heel counter structure.
