FAQs

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer or brand. These are UK sizes, so consult a conversion chart if needed. The 'oversized' nature refers to the style, not necessarily the fit; ensure your usual size is selected for a standard fit.

Are these sneakers suitable for athletic activities?

While the chunky sole offers support, these are primarily fashion sneakers and not designed for high-impact sports or rigorous athletic training. They are best suited for walking and casual wear.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The leather can be treated with a protective spray to offer some water resistance. However, it is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage to the leather.

How do I break in the chunky sole?

Wear the sneakers for short periods initially to allow the sole to flex and mold to your foot. Walking in them around the house is a good starting point.

What does 'oversized sneaker' refer to?

The term 'oversized' refers to the exaggerated proportions of the shoe's silhouette, particularly the sole and overall design, creating a bold, statement look rather than referring to a loose fit.

What is the return policy for these sneakers?

Return policies vary by retailer. Please check the specific terms and conditions of the store where you purchased the sneakers.

Can the debossed logo be cleaned?

Yes, the debossed logo can be gently cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive materials that could damage the fine details.

Troubleshooting

Leather scuffs or marks appear

Gently clean with a damp cloth and specialized leather cleaner. For deeper scuffs, a professional leather restoration service may be required.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

Ensure the soles are clean and dry. For persistent issues, consider adding a rubber sole grip or having a cobbler apply a thin protective layer.

Laces become dirty

Remove laces and hand wash them with mild detergent and water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing.

Deodorizing the interior

Use a shoe deodorizer spray or place baking soda sachets inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Leather: Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner, testing it on an inconspicuous area first.
  • Suede/Grainy Areas: Use a soft brush to maintain the texture of the grainy leather.
  • Sole Maintenance: Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth or a mild soap solution. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material.
  • Storage: Store the sneakers in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a dust bag to protect them from dust and moisture. Avoid direct sunlight for prolonged periods, which can cause discoloration.
  • Protection: Consider using a leather protectant spray to guard against water and stains, especially when new.
