FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to standard UK sizes, though the padded tongue may make them feel slightly more snug initially.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, it is highly recommended to hand-clean these trainers to preserve the leather and suede integrity.
What is the primary material used?
The Knu Skool series typically features high-quality leather, with some variations incorporating suede accents.
How do I protect the suede parts?
Apply a water-repellent spray specifically designed for suede before the first wear to guard against stains and moisture.
Is this model suitable for sports?
While durable, these are fashion trainers and are best suited for lifestyle and casual use rather than intense athletic performance.
Troubleshooting
Material showing signs of water staining
Gently blot the area with a clean, dry cloth and let it air dry. Use a leather conditioner once completely dry.
Creasing in the toe box
Use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain the shape of the trainer and minimize deep creases.
Sole losing grip
Ensure the outsoles are free of debris or dried mud by washing them with water and a mild scrubbing brush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Out of the box, ensure you check the size against your specific needs, as fit can vary slightly between leather and suede variants. To maintain your shoes, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust and dirt from the surface. For leather areas, a damp cloth with mild soap is sufficient, while suede areas should be cleaned with a dedicated suede eraser or brush. Always store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading or material cracking. If they get wet, air-dry them naturally; do not use direct heat sources like heaters or hairdryers as this can cause the material to warp.
