FAQs
What material are these shoes made from?
The Stepney Workers Club Dellow S-Strike in this specific variant is crafted from premium black leather.
Are these shoes true to size?
Stepney Workers Club generally designs their footwear to be true to size. If you are typically between sizes, consider going up half a size for optimal comfort, especially as leather can be snug initially.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
While the leather offers some natural resistance to light moisture, these shoes are not fully waterproof. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or deep puddles and using a leather protector spray for added resistance.
What does 'vulcanised rubber sole' mean?
A vulcanised rubber sole refers to a specific manufacturing process where rubber is heated with sulfur to enhance its strength, elasticity, and durability. This results in a sturdy sole with excellent grip and resistance to wear.
Are these trainers suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, the Dellow S-Strike's design, combined with its sturdy vulcanised sole and durable leather upper, makes it comfortable and supportive for prolonged, all-day wear.
What is the S-Stripe?
The S-Stripe is the distinctive signature branding element of Stepney Workers Club, visually appearing as a stripe detail along the sides of the Dellow S-Strike models.
How do I care for the leather?
Regularly wipe with a damp cloth, use a dedicated leather cleaner for deeper dirt, and apply a leather conditioner to keep the material supple. Protect from harsh elements and let air dry if wet.
Are these shoes unisex?
Yes, the Stepney Workers Club Dellow S-Strike is designed as a unisex trainer, suitable for all genders.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears dull or dry
Clean the shoes with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt, then apply a high-quality leather conditioner. Gently rub it into the leather using circular motions and buff with a clean cloth.
Squeaking sound when walking
Squeaking can sometimes come from the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, then reinserting the insole.
Minor scuffs or scratches on the leather
For light scuffs, use a leather cleaner and a soft brush, then apply a small amount of matching leather polish or balm. Buff gently with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, professional leather repair may be needed.

Care Instructions
Maintaining the premium leather of your Dellow S-Strike trainers will ensure their longevity and appearance:
- Cleaning: Wipe off dirt and dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a damp cloth, following the product's instructions.
- Conditioning: Apply a good quality leather conditioner every few weeks or months, depending on wear, to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking. This helps maintain its natural sheen.
- Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains, especially before wearing them in wet conditions.
- Drying: If your shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and let them air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as these can damage the leather.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Scuffs: Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth and a dab of leather balm or a matching leather polish.
