FAQs
What materials are these trainers made from?
The trainers are made from a combination of 50% Calf Leather and 50% Recycled Polyamide (Re-Nylon), with a 100% Rubber sole.
Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?
No, these trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday urban use. They are not intended for rigorous athletic activities.
How should I clean the Re-Nylon parts?
Wipe the Re-Nylon components with a soft, damp cloth. Minor marks can typically be removed with a mild cleaning solution suitable for synthetic fabrics.
What is the benefit of the low-top design?
The low-top design allows for unrestricted movement around the ankle and offers a contemporary, streamlined silhouette.
How do I ensure a proper fit?
Refer to the size guide and consider trying them on if possible. The lace-up closure, padded tongue, and ankle offer adjustability for a secure fit.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the rubber sole offers some protection, the leather and Re-Nylon materials are not fully waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and to clean them promptly if they get wet.
How do I maintain the leather finish?
Clean the leather with a soft, dry cloth. Use a damp cloth for tougher spots and allow to air dry. Regular conditioning with a leather balm can help maintain suppleness.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort after initial wear.
Allow a break-in period of a few wears. Ensure laces are adjusted correctly for a snug but not tight fit. Verify the size is correct.
Water spots on leather or suede.
Gently blot excess water with a clean, dry cloth immediately. Allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Consider using a water-repellent spray designed for the specific materials after drying.
Color transfer from darker socks.
Ensure socks are colorfast. If transfer occurs, attempt to clean the insole according to material care instructions. For persistent issues, consult a professional shoe cleaner.
Laces becoming worn or dirty.
Replace laces with new ones of a similar length and material. Clean existing laces by hand washing with mild soap and water, then air drying.
