FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they feature excellent cushioning, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers for walking and everyday use rather than high-performance running.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
This model follows standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to try them on in the afternoon when your feet are slightly swollen to ensure a comfortable fit.
Can I use a waterproofing spray on these?
Yes, using a leather-specific water repellent spray can help protect the material from rain and dirt, but always test on a small, inconspicuous area first.
Does the black color fade over time?
High-quality leather is generally color-fast, but prolonged direct exposure to intense sunlight can cause surface fading over many months.
Are these shoes heavy?
Due to the full-length Air unit and leather construction, they provide a solid, grounded feel that many users prefer for stability over ultra-lightweight mesh shoes.
Troubleshooting
Visible creasing on the leather upper
Use shoe trees when not in use to help the leather maintain its shape and reduce deep creases.
Squeaking sound when walking
Remove the insole and sprinkle a small amount of talcum powder inside the shoe to reduce friction.
Air unit appears cloudy
This is often surface oxidation or dirt; wipe the exterior of the unit with a microfiber cloth and a mild soap solution.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent shock absorption from the full-length Air unit
- Durable leather construction for long-term wear
- Versatile, sleek black aesthetic

Cons
- Leather material requires specific cleaning care
- Monochrome colorway may show dust or scuffs more clearly
- Full-length air sole may feel firmer than foam-only alternatives initially
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this model features a leather upper, it is important to avoid machine washing, which can damage the material and the integrity of the adhesive. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt, then wipe with a damp cloth and a mild leather-safe cleaner. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as excessive heat can warp the Air unit. Ensure your size is confirmed based on UK sizing standards for the best fit, as leather tends to retain its shape and will not stretch significantly over time.
