FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, machine washing can damage the integrity of the leather and the adhesives used in the sole. Wipe with a damp cloth instead.

What is the benefit of the Leather Working Group certification?

It ensures the leather was produced in tanneries that meet strict environmental standards, such as efficient water and energy usage.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The Old Skool V style has a relatively standard fit, but the adjustable straps allow for a more customizable tension across the top of the foot.

Do I need to treat the leather before the first wear?

While not strictly required, a water and stain repellent spray suitable for leather can help protect them from dirt and moisture.

Can the insoles be removed?

The insoles in this model are generally fixed to the shoe; removing them may compromise the cushioning design.

Troubleshooting

Straps are not staying closed

Clean any lint, hair, or debris from the hook-and-loop surfaces using a small brush or tweezers.

Leather looks dull

Use a specialized leather conditioner or a clean, slightly damp cloth to restore the shine.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Easy for children to secure independently without tying laces
  • Environmentally conscious sourcing through Leather Working Group standards
  • Classic, versatile grey design suitable for school or casual wear
  • Robust rubber sole offers excellent grip for active play

Cons

  • Leather material is more sensitive to scuffs than synthetic alternatives
  • Hook-and-loop straps may collect debris over time
  • Not intended for heavy-duty athletic sports

Setup, Compatibility & Care

No setup is required; the trainers are ready to wear immediately. To ensure longevity, wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt after outdoor use. Do not submerge the shoes in water or place them in a washing machine, as this can damage the adhesive and material structure. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from cracking. Check the straps periodically to ensure they are free from lint or dust to maintain their strong adhesion.
