Product Information

Full details

This guide is for fashion-conscious adults seeking a statement sneaker that combines luxury materials with a bold, contemporary design. The key benefit is the distinctive oversized sole and crystal embellishments, offering elevated style for casual and semi-formal occasions. A potential caveat is the premium price point and the need for careful maintenance due to the materials.

Each pair also includes an additional set of white shoelaces.

FAQs

Are these sneakers true to size?

These are UK sizing. It is recommended to consult the specific sizing chart or try them on if possible, as fit can vary between individuals.

How should I clean the white leather?

Use a soft, dry cloth for daily cleaning. For stains, a slightly damp cloth is recommended, followed by air drying. Avoid harsh cleaners or excessive moisture.

What is the purpose of the oversized sole?

The oversized sole is a signature design element of this sneaker series, providing a distinctive aesthetic and enhanced comfort for all-day wear.

Do these sneakers come with a dust bag?

No, to reduce environmental impact and cotton consumption, dust bags are no longer provided with Alexander McQueen sneakers.

Can I wear these for sports?

These are fashion sneakers designed for style and comfort during everyday activities, not for athletic performance. They are not designed for rigorous sports.

How do I care for the crystal embellishments?

Gently wipe the crystal areas with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid rubbing or snagging them on surfaces to prevent damage.

What is the material of the sneaker?

The sneaker is made from smooth calf leather with a rubber sole and features jet black crystal embellishments on the heel counter.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears scuffed or marked

Use a soft, dry cloth for light marks. For deeper scuffs, consider a specialized leather balm or cream suitable for smooth calf leather, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid excessive rubbing.

Laces are dirty

Remove the laces and hand wash them with mild detergent and cool water. Lay flat to dry completely before re-lacing.

Sole is dirty

Wipe the rubber sole with a damp cloth. For tougher grime, use a soft brush with a mild soap and water mixture, then wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.

Crystals appear loose or damaged

Handle with extreme care. If crystals become loose, professional repair may be required. Avoid exposing the heel counter to abrasive surfaces.
