FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for heavy rain?

Due to the wool material, they are not waterproof and are best worn in dry or mild conditions.

How does the sizing run?

The 950 features a roomy toe box, generally providing a true-to-size fit for most adult foot shapes.

Can I put these in the dryer?

No, never place these trainers in a dryer as the heat will damage the wool and the shoe shape.

Are these suitable for basketball?

While inspired by 1980s basketball culture, these are lifestyle trainers and not intended for competitive play.

What is the best way to store these?

Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the white wool from yellowing or fading.

Troubleshooting

Visible surface dirt on white wool

Gently dab with a slightly damp microfiber cloth; do not scrub aggressively to avoid pilling.

Creasing in the toe box

Insert a wooden shoe tree when not in use to help the fabric maintain its structure.

Difficulty maintaining white brightness

Use a specialized fabric-safe sneaker protector spray before wearing to repel light stains.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile, clean white aesthetic matches most casual outfits
  • Roomy toe box design promotes long-term wearing comfort
  • Distinctive design details like the puffed logo add visual interest
  • Unisex design suitable for a wide range of foot shapes

Cons

  • Wool material is less water-resistant than synthetic options
  • White colourway requires more frequent maintenance to stay clean
  • Requires specific care protocols due to the textile upper

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these trainers are constructed with wool, proper care is essential to maintain their shape and appearance. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the material integrity. Instead, gently spot-clean surface marks with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the wool from shrinking or losing shape. To ensure the best fit, pair these with mid-weight socks that complement the breathable properties of the wool upper.
