FAQs
What type of socks are best to wear with these trainers?
Ankle socks or no-show socks are typically recommended to maintain the sleek look of the trainers. However, crew socks can also be worn for a more casual aesthetic.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, the suede is susceptible to water damage and staining. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions and to use a protective spray.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Gently brush the mesh with a soft brush or a damp cloth. Avoid soaking the material. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a careful wipe-down with a clean, damp cloth.
What is the sole made of?
The trainers feature a custom low-profile rubber sole unit for durability and traction.
Are these trainers suitable for sports activities?
These trainers are designed for lifestyle wear and not for high-impact sports. They offer comfort for everyday activities but lack the specialized support and cushioning required for athletic performance.
How should I store these trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees or stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight initially
Leather and suede will naturally mold to your foot over time. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in.
Suede appears matted or dirty
Use a suede brush to restore the nap of the suede. For stubborn marks, consider a specialized suede cleaner, following product instructions carefully.
Leather shows scuffs
Use a leather conditioner or polish appropriate for the color to buff out minor scuffs. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the rubber sole is clean and free of debris. For new shoes, the sole might be slick initially; light wear will improve grip.
