FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the suede and the structural integrity of the shoe. Use hand-cleaning methods instead.
How do I clean the suede parts?
Use a dry suede brush or a specialized suede eraser to gently lift stains and restore the texture of the material.
Is this a unisex shoe?
Yes, while listed for male sizing, the OG Old Skool LX design is widely considered unisex and suitable for anyone.
How does the sizing run?
They typically follow standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to stick to your usual shoe size.
Are these suitable for long-distance walking?
While comfortable for casual daily wear, they are not designed with the high-tech cushioning found in performance running shoes, so they are best suited for moderate walking.
Troubleshooting
Shoes are getting dirty quickly
Apply a water-repellent spray specifically designed for canvas and suede to create a protective barrier against debris.
The fit feels slightly tight
Ensure you are using thin cotton socks and confirm you have selected the correct UK size, as canvas may take a few wears to mold perfectly to your foot shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box with no specific break-in period required for most users. To maintain the 'Stressed Navy' appearance, avoid machine washing; instead, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt from the canvas. For the suede sections, use a specialized suede eraser or brush to keep the nap looking fresh. Ensure the shoes are kept away from prolonged direct sunlight when storing to prevent color fading. Compatibility-wise, they pair perfectly with denim, chinos, or casual shorts, making them a highly flexible addition to your footwear rotation.
