FAQs

Do the Alexander McQueen Oversized Sneakers fit true to size?

Yes, these sneakers are designed to fit true to size with a regular fit. It is recommended to purchase your usual shoe size.

How should I clean the crystal-embellished heel?

Gently wipe the crystals with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using water, cleaning solutions, or abrasive materials, as this can damage the embellishments.

Can I wear these sneakers in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, it is best to avoid wearing these sneakers in heavy rain. Consider using a water-repellent spray specifically designed for leather, but test it on a small, inconspicuous area first.

What is the sole made of?

The sole is made of 100% rubber, featuring an oversized design for a distinctive aesthetic and comfortable cushioning.

Are there different color options available?

This specific guide focuses on the White/Black colorway. Other color variations or styles within the Oversized Sneaker series may be available from Alexander McQueen.

What material is the sneaker upper made from?

The upper is crafted from 100% smooth calf leather.

How do I maintain the shine of the leather?

Regularly clean the leather with a soft cloth. For restoring shine, use a suitable leather conditioner or polish, applying it gently with a soft cloth and buffing.

Troubleshooting

Laces are difficult to adjust.

Ensure laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets. If laces are stiff, try gently flexing them or replacing them with the additional pair provided.

Scuffs or marks on the leather.

For minor scuffs, try a leather conditioner or a specialized leather cleaner. For deeper marks, professional leather cleaning may be required.

Dullness in the leather's sheen.

Use a shoe polish or a leather care product designed to restore shine. Apply sparingly with a soft cloth and buff gently.

Crystals appear loose or damaged.

Contact customer support or a specialized shoe repair service. Attempting to re-affix crystals without proper tools and adhesive can cause further damage.

Oversized sole feels unstable.

Allow a break-in period for the sole to adapt to your gait. Ensure the fit is correct; too loose or too tight can affect perceived stability.
