FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adult UK sizing; however, since they are leather, a snug fit is normal at first.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the adhesive and the leather material. Always hand clean with a cloth.
Do these provide arch support?
They feature a cushioned foam midsole that offers basic comfort, though users needing specialized orthotic support may wish to use their own insoles.
Is the leather real or synthetic?
The product features durable leather construction.
Are they suitable for rainy weather?
While durable, leather is porous. Applying a water-repellent spray will help, but they are not waterproof.
What is the pearlised detailing?
It is a subtle aesthetic finish on the shoe materials that provides a unique shimmer compared to standard flat-finish models.
Troubleshooting
The leather feels stiff initially
Wear them indoors for short periods with thick socks to gently soften the material before regular use.
Outsole losing its grip
Wipe the rubber waffle tread with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust and debris.
Scuffs on the white upper
Use a white leather cleaner or a soft eraser designed for footwear to gently buff away minor marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. To ensure the longest possible lifespan for your footwear, follow these maintenance tips:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth and mild soap solution. Avoid soaking the shoes.
- Storage: Keep your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather discolouration.
- Lacing: Ensure laces are kept in good condition; replace them if they become frayed to maintain a secure fit.
- Protection: Consider applying a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray to help keep the white finish looking cleaner for longer.
