FAQs
Are these shoes actually made of leather?
No, these trainers are PETA-certified vegan, meaning they do not contain any animal-derived products.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as the pearl and tassel embellishments may become damaged or detached.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
These trainers are sized in UK adult measurements. We recommend checking your foot length against a standard UK size chart to ensure a 3.5 fit.
Are the pearls removable?
The pearls are integrated into the lace design for a permanent decorative effect; they are not intended to be removed.
Is the sole slippery?
The platform sole features a textured grip designed for standard urban surfaces; however, exercise caution on polished or wet floors.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone easily
Ensure the laces are tied with a double knot, especially given the extra weight of the decorative pearls and tassels.
Surface marks on the suede
Use a specialized suede brush or a soft eraser to gently lift stains without damaging the texture.
Platform sole scuffing
Use a gentle multi-purpose cleaner or a melamine sponge to remove light scuffs from the rubber-like sole material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Refresh Trainers maintain their look, start by loosening the laces to achieve a comfortable, secure fit for your specific arch height. Since these shoes use a suede-effect finish, it is highly recommended to apply a water-repellent spray before the first wear to guard against moisture and dirt. When cleaning, avoid harsh scrubbing on the pearl and tassel embellishments. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust from the suede, and gently wipe the platform sole with a damp cloth to keep it looking pristine. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading.
