FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?

While originally a runner, modern technology has advanced significantly; these are best utilized as lifestyle trainers rather than for long-distance athletic training.

How does the sizing run?

They fit standard to size, but the retro cut may feel slightly narrower than modern performance sneakers.

Can I wear these in the rain?

The open-holed mesh design means they are not waterproof; it is best to avoid wet conditions to keep your feet dry.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from breathable open-holed mesh with durable synthetic overlays.

Are these shoes unisex?

The series is designed as a versatile trainer, though individual sizing is categorized for adult wearers.

Troubleshooting

Visible dust or debris trapped in the mesh

Use a soft brush or compressed air to gently remove debris from the open-holed mesh fabric.

Creasing on synthetic overlays

Stuff the toe box with cedar shoe trees or paper when not wearing to help maintain the original structure.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and breathable materials
  • Versatile retro aesthetic that pairs with most outfits
  • Responsive cushioning for extended daily wear
  • Durable synthetic overlays for long-lasting wear

Cons

  • Primarily designed for lifestyle rather than intense sports
  • Open-mesh construction may not be ideal for rainy conditions
  • Retro fit may feel different compared to modern high-performance runners

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best fit, ensure you are wearing the appropriate size for your foot arch, as retro-style trainers often feature a slightly different internal volume than modern performance shoes. To maintain the material integrity of the leather and synthetic overlays, avoid machine washing. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh, and wipe the synthetic sections with a damp cloth and mild soap. To preserve the shape, use shoe trees when not in use and keep them away from direct heat sources, which can cause the adhesives to weaken over time.
