FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for professional tennis?
No, these are lifestyle trainers inspired by tennis heritage, not technical performance court shoes.
How do I know if I have the leather or suede version?
Please check the product description for your specific UK size variant, as material specifications vary by MPN and size.
Can I use these for running?
These trainers are designed for casual, everyday walking and are not intended for running or high-impact training.
Are the sizes listed in men's or women's?
The series includes both male and female variants; please refer to the specific listing to confirm the intended gender and size.
How should I store these trainers?
Keep them in a dry area with consistent temperature, and use shoe trees if you want to maintain the shape.
Can these be resoled?
While the outsole is durable, these are not typically designed to be resoled by a cobbler due to the vulcanized or bonded construction methods.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty cleaning white accents
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution or a mild soap mixture with a soft-bristled brush.
Suede material looking dull
Gently use a suede-specific brush to lift the nap and remove dust particles.
Shoe feels slightly tight
Ensure you are using thin performance socks to allow for proper break-in time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last, always double-check the sizing before purchase, as these are listed by UK size standards. For care, suede models should be treated with a dedicated suede protector spray to repel moisture and dirt. For leather versions, use a soft, damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner to maintain the finish. Avoid machine washing your trainers, as this can degrade the adhesives and structural integrity of the shoe. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
