FAQs
Are these sneakers true to size?
These trainers are generally considered true to size for adult foot sizes. It is recommended to consult the size guide and consider personal preference for fit.
What is the main difference in the 'Oversized Sneaker' model?
The defining feature is the significantly larger, chunky rubber sole compared to traditional sneakers, offering a modern and statement aesthetic.
How should I clean the leather exterior?
Use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For deeper cleaning, a specialized leather cleaner can be used, but always test on a small area first.
Are these suitable for wet weather?
While the rubber sole offers some protection, the leather upper is not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve the leather's quality.
Do they come with a dust bag?
No, Alexander McQueen no longer provides a dust bag with their sneakers to reduce environmental impact and cotton consumption.
What material is the interior of the sneaker made from?
The interior is fully lined with 100% leather for comfort and breathability.
Can I replace the laces?
Yes, the laces can be replaced. Ensure you choose laces of a similar length and width for the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing
Creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, avoid over-tightening laces and use shoe trees when storing.
Slight discoloration on leather
Wipe gently with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, consult a professional leather cleaner.
Oversized sole feels bulky
Ensure the correct size is purchased. The sole's design is intentional for style; allow time for adjustment to the feel.
Laces feel loose
Re-tie the laces, ensuring they are snug but not overly tight to avoid damaging the eyelets or leather.
