FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, the Beetle trainers are designed as casual everyday footwear and do not provide the stability or cushioning required for running.

Can I wash these in a washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the leather and the integrity of the sealed construction. Clean by hand only.

How does the sizing run?

They generally follow standard UK sizing, but since they are made of leather, they may stretch slightly to accommodate your foot shape over time.

Are the outsoles truly non-slip?

The outsoles feature rubber grips designed for standard urban traction, but they are not categorized as 'slip-resistant' footwear for industrial or commercial safety environments.

What is the best way to store the trainers?

Store them in a well-ventilated area using shoe trees to maintain their form and absorb any residual moisture.

Troubleshooting

Leather looks dull or dry

Apply a small amount of neutral leather conditioner to restore moisture and shine.

Outsole collecting debris

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove stones or dirt trapped in the tread patterns.

Slight creasing in leather

This is normal for high-quality leather; using shoe trees when not in use helps maintain shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Beetle trainers last, avoid submerging them in water. For daily maintenance, wipe the leather surface with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack. Use a quality leather cream or conditioner periodically to maintain the suppleness of the material and keep the black finish looking vibrant. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use.
