FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they feature a regular fit that matches standard adult sizing.

Can I wash these in a washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the suede material and the glue structure of the sole.

What is the primary material?

The upper is constructed from premium suede, while the sole is made from vintage gum rubber.

Are they suitable for the gym?

These are primarily lifestyle trainers. While comfortable, they lack the specific technical support needed for high-intensity gym workouts.

Do they provide arch support?

They feature an OrthoLite sock liner which provides basic comfort, but they are relatively flat compared to modern performance running shoes.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted

Use a suede brush to gently lift the fibers back to their original texture.

Water stains on the exterior

Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from direct heat, then gently brush the surface.

Laces becoming loose

Ensure a double knot is tied if you prefer a more secure fit during active walking.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these trainers are constructed with suede, proper care is essential to extend their lifespan. Avoid wearing these in wet or muddy conditions, as suede can become discolored or damaged by water. If the shoes get dusty, use a dry, soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface debris. For deeper cleaning, utilize a specialized suede cleaner and a suede brush, always testing a small, inconspicuous area first. The standard lace-up design allows you to adjust the tension of the fit to your preference. Ensure you store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the color and the integrity of the suede.
