FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The Guess Elba trainers generally follow standard UK sizing; however, individual fit can vary based on personal preference and foot width.
Can these trainers be washed in a washing machine?
No, it is highly recommended that you avoid machine washing, as the heat and agitation can damage the leather, adhesives, and structure of the shoe.
What is the total height of the sole?
The shoe features a 4.5 cm sole with an integrated 1.2 cm platform.
What materials are used for the exterior?
The exterior is crafted from a durable combination of leather and polyurethane.
Are these suitable for athletic activities?
These are primarily fashion trainers designed for casual use and walking, rather than for high-impact sports or gym performance.
How do I prevent the white material from discolouring?
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and moisture. Clean them regularly to prevent dirt from settling into the pores of the material.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure a double knot is used, or replace with slightly longer laces if the current ones do not provide enough length to hold the knot securely.
Difficulty cleaning scuffs from the leather
Use a white eraser for minor scuffs or a dedicated leather cleaner applied with a soft microfiber cloth; avoid harsh chemical solvents.
Insole feels too firm
If you require extra arch support or cushioning, consider adding a thin third-party comfort insole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Guess Elba trainers last, keep these tips in mind:
- Initial Fit: Ensure the size matches your standard UK foot measurement; the lace-up closure provides some room for adjustment, but proper sizing is critical for comfort.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather and polyurethane exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Use a specialized leather cleaner for tougher stains, and avoid machine washing.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the white material to yellow or the leather to crack over time.
- Maintenance: Periodically check the rubber outsole for debris stuck in the tread to maintain optimal traction.
