FAQs
How should I clean the leather on my PS PAUL SMITH Lee Trainers?
For everyday cleaning, wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning or scuffs, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner, following the product's instructions carefully. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Are these trainers suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, the PS PAUL SMITH Lee Trainers feature a cushioned insole and padded collar designed for enhanced comfort, making them suitable for extended wear throughout the day.
Can I wear these trainers in rainy weather?
While the premium leather is durable, it's advisable to avoid heavy rain to protect the material. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat and apply a leather conditioner once dry. A leather protector spray can offer some water resistance.
What is the sole made of?
The trainers are equipped with a durable rubber sole, providing lasting comfort and reliable traction for daily wear.
How do I maintain the distinct striped heel tab?
Gently wipe the heel tab with a soft, damp cloth to keep it clean. Avoid using harsh cleaners or excessive scrubbing, which could affect the color or material.
Are these trainers true to size?
Paul Smith trainers generally run true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size for the best fit. If you are between sizes, consider trying the next half size up.
What types of outfits do these trainers pair well with?
Thanks to their clean lines and minimalist design, these trainers are highly versatile. They complement casual outfits like jeans and t-shirts, as well as smart-casual ensembles such as chinos or tailored trousers with a button-down shirt.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears dull or dry
Clean the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt, then apply a high-quality leather conditioner using a separate clean cloth. Buff gently to restore shine and suppleness.
Trainers feel too tight or loose
Adjust the classic lace-up fastening. Experiment with different lacing patterns to achieve a more customized and comfortable fit. Ensure your socks are of an appropriate thickness.
Scuff marks on the leather surface
For light scuffs, use a dedicated leather cleaner or a specialized leather renovator cream in a matching color. Apply sparingly with a soft cloth and buff. For deeper scuffs, professional shoe repair may be required.
Squeaking noise when walking
The squeak might be coming from the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Remove the insole, sprinkle a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, and then reinsert the insole. If the squeak persists, it could be the sole and may require professional attention.
Unpleasant odor inside the trainers
Remove insoles to air out. Sprinkle baking soda inside the trainers and let sit overnight to absorb odors, then shake out. Using odor-absorbing inserts or sprays can also help. Ensure shoes are completely dry after wear.

Care
To ensure the longevity and pristine appearance of your premium leather trainers, follow these care instructions:
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe down the leather surfaces with a soft, damp cloth after each wear to remove dust and light dirt.
- Deep Cleaning: For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft cloth. Follow the product instructions carefully.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner every few weeks or months, depending on usage, to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. This also helps maintain its luxurious feel.
- Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water stains and spills, especially before initial wear.
- Drying: If trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the leather.
- Storage: Store trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
- Sole Care: Regularly inspect the rubber sole for embedded debris and clean the tread with a stiff brush to maintain traction.
