FAQs

Are these sneakers suitable for running?

No, the Dottie series is designed for fashion and casual daily wear, not as high-performance athletic footwear.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth and follow up with a high-quality leather conditioner to keep the material supple.

Do these shoes run true to size?

The Dottie Trainers generally run true to standard UK sizing; however, individual foot width may necessitate adjustment of the lace tension.

Can the insoles be replaced?

The insoles are fixed; we recommend adding a thin aftermarket arch support or comfort insert if you require additional support.

What is the platform height?

The rubber platform provides a subtle lift, typically ranging between 2 to 3 centimeters for a balanced look.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels too stiff after the first wear

Wear them with thicker socks for short durations around the house to help soften the leather naturally.

Scuff marks on the rubber sole

Use a specialized rubber eraser or a damp cloth with mild soap to gently buff out surface scuffs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Dottie Trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines: For setup, ensure you adjust the laces to match your foot tension, as the leather will gradually mold to your shape over the first few wears. Regarding compatibility, these shoes are standard UK sizing and pair best with mid-weight socks to prevent chafing. For care, use a leather-safe cleaner or a soft, damp cloth to wipe away debris. Keep them away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from cracking, and store them in a cool, dry place to maintain their color and texture.
