FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

The Marini trainers feature a sleek and understated silhouette which typically runs true to size. If you have particularly wide feet, it is advisable to try them on or consult with customer service for specific fitting advice.

How do I clean the rainbow pull tab?

The rainbow pull tab is typically made of textile. You can gently wipe it with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing to prevent damage to the colours.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the leather and suede are treated, these trainers are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain or deep puddles is not recommended, as it can damage the leather and suede materials.

What is the difference between the leather and suede versions?

The description provided is for the leather and suede combination. Paul Smith may offer variations; the core design remains similar, but material composition and care requirements will differ. Always check the specific product details for precise material information.

How durable is the rubber outsole?

The trainers feature a high-quality flat and slim rubber outsole designed for excellent grip and stability, contributing to the overall durability for everyday use.

What makes the insole 'limited edition'?

The 'limited edition multicoloured insole' refers to a specific design feature that is part of the Marini series, adding a unique visual element that is not standard on all footwear.

What size should I order if I am usually a UK 6.5?

The product information lists a UK 6. If you are usually a UK 6.5, it is recommended to try both a UK 6 and a UK 7 if possible, or consult Paul Smith's specific sizing chart for the Marini series to determine the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Break in the trainers by wearing them for short periods initially. If discomfort persists, check if the size is correct or if specific areas need stretching (consult a professional cobbler if unsure).

Suede appears matted or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For more stubborn marks, try a suede eraser. Avoid using water on suede as it can lead to watermarks.

Leather shows scuffs or minor scratches

For light scuffs, a good quality leather conditioner can help to mask them and restore shine. For deeper scratches, a coloured leather polish or balm matching the shoe's colour might be necessary.

Sole shows signs of wear

Regular cleaning will help maintain the sole's appearance. If the tread wears down significantly, consult a shoe repair professional about potential sole repair or replacement options.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Premium leather and suede construction offers durability and a sophisticated look.
  • Unique designer accents provide a subtle yet distinctive style.

Cons

  • May be too stylized for individuals seeking minimalist trainers.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Marini trainers, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Leather Care: Clean leather parts with a slightly damp cloth. Use a specialized leather cleaner for stains, and a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple.
  2. Suede Care: Use a suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid water, as it can stain suede.
  3. Sole Cleaning: Wipe the rubber sole with a damp cloth. Ensure it is dry before storing.
  4. Storage: Store the trainers in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a dust bag to protect them from dust and moisture. Avoid direct sunlight.
  5. Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray suitable for leather and suede, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
