FAQs

How do I determine the correct size?

These are women's UK sizes. It is recommended to refer to a size conversion chart if you are unfamiliar with UK sizing. Due to the slightly generous fit of the oversized sole, consider your usual sneaker size or consult reviews for specific fit advice.

Are these suitable for sports?

No, these sneakers are fashion-oriented and not designed for athletic performance. They offer comfort for everyday walking but lack specialized support for running or other sports.

How should I store my sneakers?

Store in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees is recommended to maintain their shape. Keep them in their original box or use individual shoe bags to protect them.

What is the sole made of?

The sole is made of oversized rubber, providing durability and cushioning.

Do they come with a dust bag?

No, to reduce environmental impact and cotton consumption, ALEXANDER MCQUEEN no longer provides a dust bag with their sneakers.

Can I wear these in the rain?

The smooth leather offers some protection against light rain. However, prolonged exposure to moisture is not recommended as it can affect the leather. Ensure they are dried thoroughly if they get wet.

What is the main material of the sneaker?

The main material is smooth calf leather.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather upper

Minor creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid over-tightening laces.

Sole appears dirty or scuffed

Wipe the rubber sole with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. For stubborn scuffs, a magic eraser can be used cautiously on the rubber parts only.

Laces need cleaning or replacement

Clean laces by hand with mild soap and water, then air dry. If damaged, they can be replaced with standard flat laces of a similar width.

Water spots on leather

If the leather gets wet, blot immediately with a dry cloth. Allow to air dry naturally away from heat. Conditioning the leather after drying can help restore its appearance.
