FAQs

Are these Paul Smith Lee Trainers waterproof?

No, these are leather trainers and are not designed to be waterproof. While leather offers some natural resistance, heavy rain or prolonged water exposure can damage the material. We recommend using a water-resistant spray for added protection.

How do I clean the leather on my trainers?

Wipe away surface dirt with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a clean cloth, following the product's instructions. Always finish with a leather conditioner to moisturize and protect the material.

Can I use these trainers for athletic activities or sports?

The Paul Smith Lee Leather Trainers are designed for casual and smart-casual wear, focusing on style and comfort for everyday use. They are not constructed for running, sports, or other high-impact athletic activities.

What is the best way to store these trainers when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. To help maintain their shape and prevent creasing, use shoe trees. This also helps absorb any internal moisture.

Do I need to 'break in' these leather trainers?

Yes, like many quality leather shoes, these trainers may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially to allow the leather to mould to your foot for optimal comfort.

What size should I choose if I am between sizes?

Paul Smith footwear typically runs true to size. If you are unsure or between sizes, it is generally recommended to try the larger size or consult Paul Smith's official size guide for precise measurements. This specific model is UK 7.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dull or dry.

Clean the trainers thoroughly with a soft, damp cloth, then apply a quality leather conditioner. Allow it to absorb and buff gently with a clean cloth.

Minor scuffs or scratches on the leather.

For light scuffs, use a soft cloth to gently buff the area. For deeper marks, apply a small amount of leather polish matching the shoe's colour, then buff.

Trainers feel too tight or uncomfortable initially.

Leather shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially, or use shoe stretchers. Ensure laces are not too tight. If discomfort persists, consult a shoe specialist.

Squeaking sound when walking.

This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's base. Try sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder under the insole. If the squeak is from the leather, a leather conditioner might help.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Your Paul Smith Lee Leather Trainers come ready to wear. Simply unlace them to your desired comfort level, slip your foot in, and lace them up securely. Ensure the laces are firm but not overly tight to allow for natural foot movement and prevent pressure points. Adjust the lacing throughout the day if needed to maintain optimal comfort.

These trainers are highly versatile and compatible with a wide range of wardrobe choices:

  • Apparel: Jeans, chinos, tailored trousers, shorts, smart joggers.
  • Occasions: Casual outings, smart-casual events, office environments with relaxed dress codes, weekend activities.
  • Seasons: Suitable for all seasons, though care should be taken in heavy rain or snow.

Care & Maintenance

Proper care will significantly extend the life and appearance of your leather trainers:

  1. Daily Cleaning: Wipe down the leather surfaces with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth after each wear to remove dust and surface dirt.
  2. Deep Cleaning: For stubborn dirt, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Apply a small amount to a clean cloth and gently wipe the shoe. Follow the product's instructions for best results.
  3. Conditioning: Regularly apply a high-quality leather conditioner to keep the leather supple, prevent cracking, and maintain its natural sheen. Do this every 1-2 months, or more frequently if worn often.
  4. Protection: Consider using a water and stain protector spray designed for leather to shield your trainers from the elements and accidental spills.
  5. Storage: When not in use, store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees helps maintain their shape and absorb moisture, preventing creasing.
  6. Avoid Water: While leather is durable, prolonged exposure to heavy rain or soaking can damage the material. If they get wet, let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
  7. Scuff Marks: Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth and a dab of leather polish matching the shoe's colour. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
