FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
No, the Mallet London Willow trainers are designed for casual wear and style, not for athletic performance like running.
How should I clean the suede parts?
Gently brush the suede with a suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and test on a small area first. Avoid excessive water.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the suede, mesh, and sole construction. Hand wash or spot clean only.
What is the best way to maintain the white outsole?
Wipe the white outsole with a damp cloth regularly to remove dirt and scuffs. A mild, non-abrasive cleaner can be used for tougher marks.
What materials are the trainers made from?
The trainers feature a mixed-material upper composed of suede, nubuck, and textured mesh, with a rubber outsole and mesh lining.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
Yes, the Willow series is available in other colorways, including white options.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, use a specialized suede cleaner following product instructions.
White outsole is scuffed
Use a damp cloth or a non-abrasive cleaner to gently wipe away scuffs. A magic eraser can also be effective on minor marks.
Mesh lining feels uncomfortable
Ensure socks are worn to prevent friction. Check for any debris trapped within the mesh.
Laces are dirty
Remove the laces and hand wash them in mild soap and water, then allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing.
