FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
The Fred Perry Spencer Trainers are designed primarily for casual and lifestyle wear, inspired by tennis shoe aesthetics. They offer good grip and support for walking but are not intended for rigorous athletic performance.
How do I clean the white leather?
Gently wipe the white leather with a slightly damp cloth. For stains, use a dedicated white leather cleaner and conditioner. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
What is the material of the insole?
The insole is a combination of leather and twill, designed for comfort and breathability.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, sole, and internal structure of the shoe.
How should I store the trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and prevent creasing.
What does the contrast tab at the heel do?
The contrast tab is a design feature that adds a subtle visual accent and color pop to the otherwise tonal design of the shoe.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The trainers are made from leather and are not inherently waterproof. They offer some resistance to light moisture but should be protected from heavy rain or prolonged exposure to water.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears creased or scuffed
For minor creases, try conditioning the leather. For scuffs, use a leather restorer or polish that matches the shoe color. Avoid over-conditioning.
Laces feel rough or stiff
The recycled polyester laces may have a different texture. If uncomfortable, they can be easily replaced with standard flat laces of a similar length.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While the rubber sole offers good grip, caution is advised on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean and dry for optimal traction.
Inner sole feels uncomfortable after extended wear
The leather and twill insole is designed for breathability. If additional cushioning is desired, consider using thin, supportive insoles or orthotics.
