FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for actual skateboarding?

While the D3 2001 has a strong 'skate fit' heritage and durable construction typical of skate shoes, its primary design emphasis is on a distinctive aesthetic and everyday comfort. For rigorous, high-performance skateboarding, specialized performance skate shoes might offer more advanced features tailored for impact absorption and board feel.

How do I determine the correct size?

The Osiris D3 2001 Trainers generally run true to standard UK adult sizing. We recommend selecting your usual shoe size. If you are typically between sizes or prefer a more relaxed fit, considering the next half size up might be beneficial, especially if wearing thicker socks.

What materials are the trainers made from?

The upper part of the trainers features a dynamic combination of man-made materials and mesh for durability and breathability. The sole is a robust rubber cupsole, known for its longevity and support.

Are they heavy due to the chunky design?

The chunky design and durable rubber cupsole contribute to a substantial feel, which might be perceived as heavier compared to ultra-lightweight running shoes. However, this weight contributes to their durability and signature aesthetic rather than hindering casual wear.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

The man-made and mesh upper offers some protection, but the trainers are not fully waterproof. They can handle light moisture, but for heavy rain or wet conditions, we recommend waterproof footwear to keep your feet dry and protect the trainers' materials.

What makes the D3 2001 design iconic?

The D3 2001 is iconic for its bold, oversized silhouette and distinctive paneling, which epitomized early 2000s skate and streetwear culture. Its 'chunky' aesthetic remains a popular choice for those seeking a retro and impactful style.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel stiff initially

The durable construction, especially the cupsole, might feel a bit stiff at first. Wear them for short periods to break them in naturally. The materials will soften and conform to your foot over time.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur from friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole and applying a small amount of baby powder or talcum powder inside the shoe before reinserting the insole.

Unpleasant odor develops

After extended wear, odors can build up. Remove the insoles and allow the trainers to air out in a well-ventilated area. You can also use shoe deodorizers or place sachets of baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.

Stains on the mesh or man-made upper

Act quickly to treat stains. For most common stains, use a soft cloth dampened with water and a mild soap solution. Gently blot or wipe the stain. For tougher marks, specialized sneaker cleaners designed for mixed materials can be used, following the product's instructions carefully.

Care

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Osiris D3 2001 Trainers, follow these care instructions:

  • Cleaning the Upper: For the man-made and mesh upper, use a soft, damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap. Gently wipe away dirt and stains. Avoid abrasive cleaners or brushes, which could damage the material. For stubborn dirt in mesh areas, a soft-bristled brush (like an old toothbrush) can be used carefully.
  • Cleaning the Sole: The rubber cupsole can be cleaned with a stiff brush and water to remove mud and grime.
  • Drying: Always allow your trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight, radiators, or tumble dryers, as extreme heat can deform materials and weaken adhesives.
  • Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
  • Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash these trainers, as it can cause damage to the materials and construction.
