FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Arla trainers are designed as lifestyle fashion footwear and are not intended for high-impact athletic activities or running.
How do I maintain the white leather?
Wipe down regularly with a damp cloth and use leather-specific conditioners to keep the material supple and clean.
What does the LWG certification mean?
It indicates that the leather is sourced from tanneries that have been audited for their environmental performance, including water and energy usage.
Can I remove the logo charm?
The logo charm is a design element intended to be worn with the shoe, and removing it may alter the intended look of the trainer.
Do these trainers run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing conventions for adult footwear.
Are the soles slip-resistant?
While the rubber sole provides good grip on standard surfaces, they are not classified as non-slip professional safety footwear.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather upper
Creasing is a natural characteristic of genuine leather. Use a shoe tree when not wearing the trainers to maintain their shape.
Scuff marks on the white rubber sole
Use a white eraser or a mild soap solution with a soft-bristled brush to gently buff out marks on the rubber exterior.
Laces becoming loose during wear
Ensure a double knot is used if you are walking for extended periods, or replace with waxed laces for a firmer hold.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Arla trainers stay in optimal condition, consider the following care guidelines:

- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather discoloration.
