Are these suitable for running?

Troubleshooting
Creasing of the leather material
This is natural for leather footwear; use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain the original shape.
Scuff marks on the white surfaces
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a gentle eraser tool specifically designed for footwear to remove light surface marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are standard lace-up trainers, no complex setup is required—simply adjust the laces to your preferred tension upon first wear. For compatibility, the standard sizing fits true to standard UK adult measurements. To care for your trainers, wipe down the leather exterior with a damp cloth after use to prevent dirt buildup. Avoid soaking the shoes in water, and if the leather becomes wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent cracking or warping of the material.
