FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they generally fit true to standard UK athletic sizing, though the structure of the Old Skool 36 provides a secure, snug feel.

Can these be used for skateboarding?

While based on a skate silhouette, the specific pearlised finish is more prone to wear and tear; they are intended primarily as lifestyle trainers.

How do I protect the finish?

Use a universal water and stain repellent spray specifically labeled as safe for metallic or pearlised finishes.

Are these unisex?

Yes, this model is designed for all genders and follows standard unisex sizing conventions.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the pearlised finish and affect the integrity of the adhesive bonding the sole.

Troubleshooting

Scuffs on the pearlised finish

Use a soft microfiber cloth with a tiny amount of mild soap and water to gently buff the area.

Outsole losing traction due to dust

Wipe the rubber waffle tread with a damp cloth to remove built-up debris and restore grip.

Creasing at the toe box

This is a natural occurrence in leather-based trainers; using a shoe tree when not in use can help minimize deep creases.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Distinctive and stylish pearlescent finish
  • Versatile unisex design suitable for various casual settings
  • Solid construction with proven Old Skool durability
  • Comfortable fit for everyday wear

Cons

  • The pearlescent finish requires specific care to prevent scratching
  • Light-colored sections may show dirt more easily than solid black models
  • Not intended for heavy-duty technical skating

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Out of the box, these trainers are ready for immediate wear. To ensure the best fit, check the size 8 UK sizing against your typical athletic shoe measurements. Since these are leather and textile-based, they will slightly break in and mold to your foot shape after a few days of use. To maintain the pearlised finish, avoid using harsh brushes or abrasive cleaning agents. Instead, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the surface. For deep cleaning, use specialized footwear foam cleaners that are safe for both synthetic finishes and canvas. Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat sources to prevent the material from cracking or deforming.
