FAQs

Are these sneakers true to size?

The Bakłażan Trainers follow standard European-to-UK sizing conventions; however, since they are leather, they may offer a slightly structured fit initially.

Can I wear these in the rain?

It is recommended to avoid heavy rain as leather can be damaged by water. If they do get wet, let them air dry naturally away from direct heat.

What is the best way to store these shoes?

Store in a breathable shoe bag in a temperature-controlled environment, using shoe trees to prevent deformation.

How often should I clean the leather?

Clean as needed when visible dirt appears. A light wipe-down after significant wear is usually sufficient to maintain the finish.

Are these suitable for gym use?

These are primarily fashion-forward, lifestyle trainers. While durable, they are not designed for high-impact sports or gym activities.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the leather upper

Insert shoe trees immediately after taking them off to help the leather retain its natural shape.

Surface dirt on the multicolor panels

Use a damp, soft cloth with a mild, leather-safe cleanser, wiping gently to avoid color bleeding.

Laces becoming frayed or dirty

Remove laces and hand wash them in lukewarm soapy water, then air dry completely before re-lacing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the most out of your Bakłażan Trainers, ensure you are wearing socks of appropriate thickness to match the UK 7.5 sizing. For maintenance, never machine wash these sneakers. To clean, use a soft cloth or brush to remove loose dirt, followed by a gentle, specialized leather cleanser. Avoid exposing the leather to direct heat sources or excessive moisture, as this can cause the material to crack or the colors to fade. When not in use, store them in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to maintain their shape.
