FAQs
Are these trainers waterproof?
These trainers are made from leather, which offers some resistance to light moisture. However, they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in water or worn in heavy rain for extended periods.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn dirt, use a specialized leather cleaner, and follow up with a clean, dry cloth. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
What is the 'Dark Moss' colorway?
'Dark Moss' is a deep, muted green shade, accented with black details, offering a sophisticated and versatile aesthetic.
Are these suitable for winter wear?
The leather construction provides more warmth and durability than traditional canvas trainers, making them suitable for cooler, drier winter conditions. They are not designed for heavy snow or extreme cold.
What is the main difference between these and standard canvas Chuck Taylors?
The primary difference is the material: these feature a durable leather upper, offering enhanced protection and a different aesthetic compared to the standard canvas models.
What size should I choose if I'm between sizes?
Given that leather can require a break-in period, if you are between sizes and prefer a slightly more relaxed fit, consider sizing up. However, the best approach is to try them on if possible.
Can I wear these for athletic activities?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and general comfort. They are not intended for rigorous athletic performance or sports.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels tight or uncomfortable
Wear the trainers around the house with appropriate socks for a short period to allow them to break in. If discomfort persists, consider trying a half-size up or down at the time of purchase.
Leather shows minor scuffs or marks
Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a mild leather cleaner. A good quality leather conditioner can help mask minor abrasions.
Laces are difficult to tie or stay tied
Ensure laces are threaded evenly. Try a different lacing technique or consider replacing the laces with a pair that offers better grip.
Discoloration of the leather
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and harsh chemicals. Clean regularly and store properly to prevent fading.

Care Instructions:

- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to maintain the color and material integrity. Use a shoe tree to help maintain shape.
- Water Protection: While the leather offers some protection, avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or submersion in water. Consider a water-repellent spray specifically designed for leather.
