FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
While the adiPRENE sole offers cushioning, these trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle, not high-impact athletic activities like running.
How do I maintain the nubuck upper?
Use a suede brush for routine cleaning and a specialized nubuck cleaner for stains. Avoid soaking the material in water and always allow them to air dry naturally.
What makes the Ozweego Trace Cargo different from other Ozweego models?
This variant features a matte-finished nubuck upper instead of mesh, a muted Trace Cargo color scheme, and a vintage gum rubber outsole, designed for a more subdued, cold-weather aesthetic.
Are the reflective details visible in all lighting conditions?
The reflective details are designed to catch and reflect light sources, making them more visible in low-light or nighttime conditions when illuminated.
What size should I choose if I'm between UK sizes?
It's generally recommended to try them on if possible. If not, consider your preferred fit; typically, opting for the larger size can provide more comfort, especially with thicker socks.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the nubuck, suede, and sole construction. Hand cleaning is the preferred method.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels stiff initially
Nubuck and suede can take a short period to break in. Wear them for short durations initially until they mold to your feet.
Discoloration on nubuck/suede
Ensure you are using cleaning products specifically designed for nubuck and suede. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid excessive water.
Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces
The gum rubber outsole provides good grip but can be less effective on extremely wet or slippery surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Nubuck Upper: Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, use a specialized nubuck cleaner and a damp cloth, ensuring not to oversaturate the material. Allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
- Cleaning Suede Overlays: Similar to nubuck, use a suede brush. For tougher marks, a suede eraser can be effective.
- Cleaning the Sole Unit: Wipe the adiPRENE sole and gum rubber outsole with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Laces: Can be removed and hand-washed separately.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or their original box to maintain shape and protect from dust.
