FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

While originally designed as basketball shoes, modern Superstars are primarily intended for lifestyle and casual wear rather than intense athletic performance.

How do I determine my size?

These trainers follow standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to measure your foot in the afternoon when it is at its largest.

Can these be machine washed?

No, machine washing can damage the materials and the adhesives used in the construction. Stick to manual surface cleaning.

Are the materials real leather?

The Superstar series typically utilizes high-quality synthetic or leather materials depending on the specific model variant; please refer to the product label for specific material composition.

Do they provide arch support?

They feature a standard insole designed for general comfort. If you require specialized orthotic support, the stock insole can often be replaced.

Troubleshooting

The shoe feels too stiff when first worn.

Wear them for short periods around the house to allow the materials to soften and contour to your foot shape.

Scuff marks on the rubber shell-toe.

Use a specialized rubber eraser or a damp cloth dipped in a mixture of baking soda and water to gently buff the marks away.

Creasing near the toe box.

Use a shoe tree when not in use to help maintain the structure and minimize deep set-in creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Superstars remain in peak condition, follow these simple maintenance tips:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust. For the rubber shell-toe, a damp cloth with mild soap works best to lift scuffs.
  2. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material fading.
  3. Fit Check: These are standard UK adult sizes; ensure you have enough room for natural foot swelling throughout the day.
  4. Maintenance: Periodically check the laces for wear and consider using a leather-appropriate protective spray to repel moisture.
