Onitsuka Tiger GSM SD Shoes 'Cream Cilantro' - Trainers - UK 11

No, the Onitsuka Tiger GSM SD Shoes are designed for casual wear and light activities. They do not offer the specialized support and cushioning required for long-distance running.

Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher stains, a specialized leather cleaner or suede cleaner (depending on the material of the specific area) should be used cautiously.

These trainers are primarily made of leather, offering durability and a premium feel.

While the leather can offer some water resistance, it is not recommended to wear these shoes in heavy rain. Leather can be damaged by excessive moisture, and the light color may stain easily.

The Onitsuka Tiger GSM SD model is available in various colorways. Please check the product listing for other available options.

GSM typically refers to the classic 'Grape, Squash, Marathon' silhouette inspiration, while 'SD' often denotes a 'Speed' or 'Standard' derivative in Onitsuka Tiger's naming conventions, emphasizing updated comfort or design features.

Leather shoes often require a short break-in period. Wearing them for a few hours each day for the first week will typically suffice to mold them to your foot.

Try wearing them with thinner socks initially. Leather will naturally mold to your foot over time with wear. If still uncomfortable, consider a larger size or professional stretching.

Ensure shoes are completely dry before wearing. If color transfer occurs, use a specialized suede or leather cleaner appropriate for the materials.

Walk in the shoes on a soft surface like carpet for a few hours. The sole will naturally become more flexible with regular use.

Replace laces with similar material or a durable alternative. Check for any sharp edges inside the eyelets that might be causing wear.
