FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Retropy E5 is designed for lifestyle and casual wear; while comfortable, they are not engineered for competitive running or high-impact athletic performance.
How does the sizing run?
These trainers are true to standard adult UK sizing. If you have particularly wide feet, you may consider a half-size up for additional room.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the structural adhesives and materials. Hand cleaning is the safest method.
Is the material waterproof?
No, the materials used are not waterproof. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or puddles to maintain the integrity of the finish.
What is the primary difference between these and performance running shoes?
Retropy E5 trainers focus on everyday style and comfort, whereas performance shoes focus on specific technical metrics like energy return, stability for long distances, and lightweight synthetic meshes.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the toe box area
Use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain the structure and minimize permanent creasing.
Difficulty keeping the shoes clean
Apply a standard water-and-stain repellent spray designed for fabric or suede/leather blend shoes to create a protective barrier.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Retropy E5 trainers last, follow these maintenance practices:
- Fitting: Ensure you have selected your correct UK size for optimal support and to prevent premature wear of the heel lining.
- Cleaning: Wipe away surface dirt with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft-bristled brush, avoiding abrasive scrubbing.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading of the grey materials.
- Air Circulation: Allow the trainers to air out after long periods of use to manage moisture inside the shoe.
