FAQs
Are these trainers truly metal-free?
Yes, the Dickies Elora safety trainers feature a composite toe-cap and a non-metallic anti-penetration sole, making them entirely metal-free.
What does S3 SRC rating mean?
S3 indicates a high level of safety, including a protective toe-cap, penetration-resistant midsole, and resistance to water absorption. SRC signifies the highest level of slip resistance.
How do I know if they will fit my feet?
These trainers are specifically developed for ladies' feet with a slimmer heel and reduced forepart. It's recommended to try them on or consult a sizing chart. If you have wider feet, they may feel snug.
Can I wear these in wet conditions?
Yes, the trainers are water-resistant and feature a breathable textile lining to help keep your feet dry and comfortable in damp environments.
What is the approximate weight of these trainers?
The product weight is approximately 519g per shoe, based on a UK size 5.5.
Can the insoles be replaced?
Yes, the Elora trainers come with removable foam insoles that can be replaced with custom orthotics or other insoles if needed.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed from a combination of nubuck and mesh fabric.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. The trainers are designed for a women's fit; consider wearing thinner socks or ensure the removable insole is properly seated. If still uncomfortable, explore other sizes or models.
Reduced water resistance over time
Reapply a suitable waterproofing spray for nubuck and textile footwear. Ensure the trainers are completely dry before and after application.
Slipping on certain surfaces
While rated SRC for slip resistance, performance can vary by surface. Ensure the sole is clean and free from debris. For extremely slick surfaces, additional caution may be required.
Discomfort from the anti-penetration sole
Ensure the trainers are fully broken in. The non-metallic sole may feel slightly stiffer initially compared to softer materials. If persistent discomfort occurs, check for debris inside the shoe or consider an alternative model.
