FAQs

What type of leather is used in the Goswell Tie trainers?

The Goswell Tie trainers are crafted with premium leather that features a hand-finished detailing, offering a distinctive and sophisticated look.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, it is best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. Consider using a water-repellent spray specifically designed for leather footwear and allow the shoes to dry naturally away from direct heat if they get damp.

How do I ensure the best fit?

The lace-up fastening allows for a secure and adjustable fit. Ensure you select your correct UK shoe size. The removable footbed also allows for some personalization of fit.

Are these trainers suitable for very formal occasions?

The Goswell Tie trainers are designed for smart-casual wear. They are ideal for bridging the gap between casual and slightly more formal settings, but may not be appropriate for strictly formal events.

How do I clean the EVA sole?

Wipe the EVA sole with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners to prevent damage to the material.

Can I replace the EVA footbed with my own insoles?

Yes, the EVA footbed is removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics or preferred insoles for enhanced comfort and support.

What is the main advantage of the EVA sole?

The EVA sole is known for being incredibly light and spongy, providing excellent impact absorption for comfortable all-day wear.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or too loose.

Adjust the lace-up fastening. Ensure you are wearing the correct size. If the shoe is slightly too large, the removable footbed can be replaced with a thicker one for a snugger fit.

Leather appears dull or scuffed.

Clean the leather with a damp cloth. Apply a suitable leather conditioner and polish to restore shine and protect the finish. For scuffs, a mild leather restorer might be necessary.

Footbed feels uncomfortable after prolonged wear.

Remove the existing EVA footbed and replace it with your preferred custom orthotic or a thicker aftermarket insole for added cushioning or support.

Soles squeak on certain surfaces.

This can sometimes occur with EVA soles. Ensure the soles are clean and dry. A light dusting of talcum powder on the footbed where it meets the sole might help if the squeak is internal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The Goswell Tie trainers come ready to wear. Adjust the laces to achieve your preferred fit. The removable EVA footbed can be taken out if you wish to replace it with a custom insole or for cleaning.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult males. They are compatible with a wide range of casual and smart-casual attire. Ensure the correct UK size is selected for optimal fit.

Care:

  • Leather Care: Due to the hand-finished nature of the leather, avoid harsh chemicals. Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For conditioning and protection, use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner suitable for premium leathers. Test any product on an inconspicuous area first.
  • Sole Care: Wipe the EVA sole with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the material.
  • Footbed Care: The removable EVA footbed can be gently wiped clean with a damp cloth. Allow to air dry completely before reinserting.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or the original box to maintain shape and protect the leather.
