Shoe Fit & Care

• Use your shoes only for their intended purpose.
• Clean your shoes with mild detergents and cool water. Recommend NOT putting your shoes in the washing machine.
• Dry your shoes by removing their inserts and allowing them to air dry. Packing them with crumpled newspaper will help them retain their shape.
• A suede brush will help keep the outside surfaces of your shoes clean.
• Keep your shoes away from extreme heat, such as radiators and dryers.

We've created this Fit Tips section to help you achieve a proper fit and reach optimum performance.

• Feet get larger with age. We recommend you have your feet measured once a year.
• Women's feet may become a half size larger or more after pregnancy.
• When you receive your shoes, make sure you wear the type of socks you'll wear with the shoes. The "wrong" socks will alter the fit.
• Feet swell during the day. Try on shoes later in the day, when your feet are the largest.
• Specific shoes are designed to enhance performance for specific activities if you plan to run, don't buy cross trainers - buy running shoes.

• The heel should fit snugly with no slippage.
• The mid-foot - the area under the arch and over your instep - should fit snug and not tight.
• The toe-box should have enough room to wiggle your toes.
• Your left and right foot may differ by as much as a full size. Measure both and fit the larger foot.
• You can tell your shoes are too small if your feet cramp while running or just afterwards, if your feet fall asleep while running or if you get blisters and calluses between your toes.
• Give your feet time to adjust to new shoes, walk around inside casually for a couple days before working out.
• Take your shoes for a test jog inside, a treadmill is the ideal setting.
