These shoes offer a classic, retro look with the significant benefit of being made with vegan alternatives to animal-derived materials, and constructed with 20% recycled content in the upper. A potential caveat for users is that 'vegan' materials might require slightly different care than traditional leather to maintain their appearance and durability.

Troubleshooting

Slight creasing on the upper material

This is normal for synthetic and vegan leather materials and is not indicative of a defect. Wear will naturally cause some creasing.

Discoloration of the gum sole

Gum soles can naturally yellow slightly over time due to oxidation. This is a common characteristic and does not affect performance. Clean gently with a damp cloth.

Shoe feels stiff initially

The trainers may feel a bit stiff when new. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in. They will become more comfortable with use.
