Are the materials sustainable?

Troubleshooting
The fit feels slightly tight initially
Leather will naturally soften and stretch slightly with wear; wear them for shorter periods during the first week to allow the material to break in.
Footbed feels damp after a long day
Remove the EVA footbed and allow it to air dry outside the shoe overnight to eliminate moisture buildup.
Scuff marks on the leather surface
Use a leather cleaner specifically formulated for your shoe colour to buff out light scuffs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers require no specific setup; they are ready for use directly out of the box. For optimal fit, ensure you select your standard UK size, as the leather material provides a structured, true-to-size feel.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe leather surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Use a leather conditioner periodically to prevent drying.
- Footbed Care: Remove the EVA footbed occasionally to air it out and remove dust or debris.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to preserve the leather integrity.
- Waterproofing: While durable, leather is best kept dry; consider applying a leather-safe water-repellent spray if you live in a damp climate.
