FAQs
Are these sneakers suitable for athletic use?
While durable, the Sl/61 is designed as a fashion sneaker rather than for high-performance sports or heavy gym activity.
How do I ensure the correct fit?
Saint Laurent sizing typically follows standard UK sizing. We recommend referencing the size guide for your specific foot measurements.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No. Machine washing will permanently damage the suede material and compromise the shoe's structure.
What is the primary difference between the leather and suede versions?
The primary difference is the exterior material; suede offers a matte, textured look, whereas leather provides a smoother, more resilient finish.
How can I protect the suede from rain?
Always apply a high-quality water-repellent spray designed specifically for suede at least 24 hours before wearing them in damp conditions.
Do these shoes require a breaking-in period?
Like most premium footwear, they may feel slightly stiff initially but will soften and conform to your foot with regular wear.
Troubleshooting
Surface dust accumulation on suede
Gently brush the surface with a dedicated suede brush in one direction to lift dirt.
Water spots or light stains
Use a suede eraser to gently buff the affected area and restore the nap.
Laces becoming frayed or dirty
Remove the laces and hand wash them in lukewarm soapy water, then air dry completely before re-lacing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Out of the box, these trainers are ready for wear. To maintain their appearance, apply a suede-specific protective spray before first use to repel water and light dirt. Compatibility-wise, these grey trainers are highly adaptable due to their neutral color palette; they pair naturally with black, navy, or khaki garments. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust. In the event of stubborn stains, consult a professional leather or suede specialist to avoid damaging the nap of the material. Keep the sneakers away from direct heat sources when drying to prevent the suede from becoming stiff or discolored.
