FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Continental 80 generally follows standard sizing, though those who prefer a looser fit may consider trying them on with their preferred sock thickness.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, it is highly recommended to hand-clean these shoes to avoid damaging the leather material and the glue bonds.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is primarily made from high-quality leather, providing durability and a classic look.
Are they suitable for running?
No, these are classified as lifestyle trainers inspired by 80s indoor footwear and do not contain the specialized cushioning needed for running.
How do I remove yellowing from the white leather?
Use a dedicated leather cleaner or a mixture of mild soap and water, then buff gently with a clean cloth.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather upper
This is a natural occurrence with genuine leather; using a shoe tree when not in use helps maintain shape.
Dirt accumulation in the textured outsole
Use a toothbrush or a stiff cleaning brush to dislodge debris from the tread patterns.
Scuff marks on the white finish
Gently rub the area with a white eraser or a damp cloth dipped in a leather-safe cleaning solution.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the most out of your Continental 80s requires minimal setup but consistent care. As they feature a leather upper, it is recommended to apply a leather protectant spray before initial wear to guard against water and dirt. Compatibility is high, as the neutral white/green palette complements most denim washes and earth-toned trousers. To care for them, wipe down the leather with a soft, damp cloth after wear to remove surface dust. For tougher scuffs on the midsole, a mild soap solution on a soft-bristled brush is highly effective. Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to maintain the integrity of the leather.
