FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, these are classified as lifestyle trainers inspired by martial arts and are not designed for long-distance running or high-impact athletic training.

How should I clean the white sections?

Use a soft brush to remove loose debris, followed by a mild leather or synthetic cleaner applied with a soft cloth.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard adult UK sizing for male footwear.

Can I replace the insoles?

The insoles are generally removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if you require additional arch support.

Are they waterproof?

These trainers are not waterproof and are designed for dry, everyday conditions.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on white surfaces

Use a gentle shoe cleaner specifically formulated for trainers and wipe down with a damp cloth after every few wears.

Sole grip feels slippery on wet surfaces

Due to the low-profile design, use caution on smooth, wet tiles; the grip is optimized for dry pavement and standard indoor flooring.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers fit standard adult sizing; this specific model is available in UK size 12. To ensure longevity, keep the shoes dry and away from extreme heat sources, which can damage the bonding agents and materials. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the upper. For persistent stains on the white leather or synthetic sections, use a specialized sneaker cleaner and a microfiber cloth. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can compromise the shape and integrity of the shoe's construction.
