FAQs
Is the material real leather?
Yes, this specific model features a high-quality leather upper.
Are these shoes true to size?
The Continental 80 generally fits true to size, but we recommend referencing your standard UK shoe size.
Can I use these for running?
These shoes are designed for casual, everyday wear and do not offer the support or cushioning required for running.
How do I best maintain the colour?
Keep the shoes away from prolonged direct sunlight to prevent the green dye from fading, and use a leather conditioner periodically.
Are they suitable for rainy weather?
Leather shoes can handle light dampness, but they are not waterproof; avoid deep puddles to protect the leather material.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the toe box
Use a shoe tree when not in use to help the leather maintain its shape and minimize deep creases.
Difficulty cleaning white accents
Use a mild soap solution and a soft-bristle brush, focusing only on the stained area, then pat dry immediately.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Continental 80 trainers maintain their condition, it is recommended to store them in a cool, dry place when not in use. Since these are leather shoes, avoid exposure to excessive moisture or mud. To clean, wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth and use a dedicated leather cleaner if necessary. Ensure the shoes are fully dry before the next use. For sizing, ensure you verify your UK foot size, as this model utilizes a standard adult fit designed to be true to size for most wearers.
