FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Autry Medalist Low Shoes are designed for casual wear and daily activities. They do not offer the specialized support or cushioning required for running or high-impact sports.
How do I clean the suede material?
Gently brush the suede with a specialized suede brush. For stains, use a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth. Always allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat and sunlight.
What is the sole height?
The sole height typically ranges from 2.5 cm to 4 cm at its highest point. The shoe also features a 2 cm raised leather insole.
Are these shoes waterproof?
These shoes are not waterproof. The suede material can be damaged by excessive moisture, so it's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions.
What is the fit like?
The fit is generally true to size for most users. However, the 2 cm raised leather insole provides some lift, which might affect the perception of fit for individuals with specific arch requirements. It's recommended to consult sizing charts or try them on if possible.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in wet weather as the material can be easily damaged by water and stains. It's best to protect them from moisture.
What is the main difference between the Medalist and other Autry models?
The Medalist series is characterized by its distinct vintage tennis silhouette and use of premium materials like suede and leather, designed for everyday urban style rather than specialized sports performance.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, try a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth, followed by air drying and brushing.
Shoes feel slightly tight
Wear them with thicker socks for a short period to help them stretch slightly. Ensure laces are loosened initially. The 2 cm raised insole might require adjustment for some users.
Laces are worn or dirty
Gently hand wash the cotton laces with mild soap and water, or replace them with a new pair of similar length and style.
Rubber sole is dirty
Wipe the sole with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a soft brush and mild soap can be used, followed by rinsing with a clean damp cloth.
