FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the GL 1600 originated as a high-mileage distance shoe in the 1980s, modern versions are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear.
How do I clean the suede material?
Use a dry, soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt. Avoid using water or heavy soaps, as these can ruin the suede finish.
Do these trainers run true to size?
Yes, they feature a regular fit and typically align with standard UK adult sizing.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended. Suede is porous and can easily absorb water, which may cause staining or material degradation.
What is the secondary color detail?
The trainers feature New Grey structural details that complement the primary Dark and Light Cocoa brown tones.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears matted or dirty
Use a specialized suede brush or a soft-bristled brush to gently buff the surface in one direction.
Visible water stains on the upper
Allow the shoes to air dry completely, then use a suede eraser or specialized suede cleaning kit to lift the stain.
Shoes feel tight after long wear
Loosen the laces to allow the foot to expand naturally; if discomfort persists, ensure you are using the correct size for your foot width.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your GL 1600 trainers last, keep them away from excessive moisture. If they become dusty, use a soft-bristled brush to gently lift debris from the suede grain. For sizing, the model follows a standard UK adult foot sizing; it is recommended to stick to your usual sneaker size for the best fit. If the shoes get wet, air-dry them away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the materials or cause the suede to stiffen.
