FAQs
Are these trainers waterproof?
These trainers are primarily made of leather and are not fully waterproof. While they offer some protection against light moisture, they are best avoided in heavy rain.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer and measure your foot length in centimeters or inches. Compare this to the UK sizing indicated for the Y-3 Field Trainers.
Can I wear these for sports?
The Y-3 Field Trainers are designed for style and casual wear. While they offer good grip and comfort for walking, they are not specialized athletic shoes for intense sports activities.
How often should I condition the leather?
It is recommended to condition the leather every few months, or more frequently if the shoes are worn often or exposed to dry conditions.
What is the sole made of?
The sole is made of 100% rubber and features a lug pattern for enhanced grip and stability.
What does 'Y-3' stand for?
Y-3 is a collaboration between Japanese fashion designer Yohji Yamamoto and sportswear giant Adidas. 'Y' represents Yamamoto, and '3' represents the three stripes of Adidas.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, you should never machine wash leather trainers. Cleaning should be done by hand with a damp cloth and appropriate leather care products.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing excessively
Ensure proper fit to avoid excess pressure. Use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape. Apply leather conditioner regularly.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
The lug pattern provides grip, but very smooth or wet surfaces can reduce traction. Exercise caution in such conditions. Ensure the sole is clean.
Difficulty breaking in the leather
Wear the trainers for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Walking around at home can help mold them to your feet.
Color transfer from black leather
This is more common with new leather. Wear with darker socks initially. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored materials, especially when damp.
