FAQs
What type of running are these shoes best for?
The Galaxy 7 trainers are best suited for distance running on roads and treadmills, focusing on providing comfort and cushioning for regular training.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. The heel should feel secure without slipping.
Can these shoes be used for cross-training or gym workouts?
While they offer good cushioning, their design is primarily for running. For specific cross-training activities, shoes with more lateral support might be more appropriate.
Are the insoles removable?
The product description does not specify if the insoles are removable. However, many running shoes allow for insole replacement if needed.
What is the heel-to-toe drop?
The product details mention a flat heel, suggesting a minimal heel-to-toe drop, which is common for distance running shoes focused on a natural stride.
How should I clean the shoes if they get very dirty?
For heavy dirt, use a soft brush with mild soap and water on the affected areas, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Always air dry.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort during runs
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for a secure but not overly tight fit. Break in the shoes gradually over several runs. If discomfort persists, consider if the shoe's support level is appropriate for your gait.
Reduced cushioning over time
Cloudfoam cushioning may naturally decrease with extensive use. Rotate between multiple pairs of shoes if you run frequently, and follow care instructions to prolong the shoe's life.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While the TPU outsole offers traction, extremely wet or slick surfaces can still pose a risk. Exercise caution and reduce speed on wet or icy conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers require no specific setup; simply lace them up for an adjustable fit. They are designed for compatibility with most running surfaces, particularly roads and treadmills.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe the uppers and sole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and cushioning.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, which can warp the shape and materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
