FAQs
Do the Apex trainers fit true to size?
Yes, the Apex trainers are designed to fit true to size. However, it's always recommended to check the size guide and consider your personal fit preferences, as foot shapes can vary.
What materials are the Apex trainers made from?
The trainers feature a mixture of tumbled and flat leather uppers, with leather piping details. The outsole is made of rubber.
What is the main design inspiration for the Apex trainers?
The design is inspired by a blend of vintage basketball aesthetics, evident in the leather piping, and modern skate-inspired elements, seen in the custom sole unit.
Are the trainers waterproof?
The Apex trainers are not explicitly marketed as waterproof. While the leather offers some resistance, they are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain.
What comes with the trainers when purchased?
The Apex trainers come with both Vintage White and Grey laces, allowing you to customize their look.
Where are the Apex trainers made?
These trainers are hand-made in Portugal, reflecting a commitment to quality craftsmanship.
How should I care for the leather to keep it looking new?
Regularly wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Use a dedicated leather cleaner for tougher spots and a leather conditioner to maintain suppleness and prevent cracking. Protect from excessive moisture and direct sunlight.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel uncomfortable or uneven.
Adjust the lacing pattern or tension. Ensure the tongue is centered and the padding lies flat against your foot.
Leather appears scuffed or dirty.
Clean with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces.
Ensure the sole is clean and free from debris. The grip may vary on extremely smooth or wet surfaces. Consider using an anti-slip spray designed for footwear if this is a persistent issue.
Discomfort after initial wear.
Allow a break-in period of a few wears, as the leather will mold to your foot. Ensure you are using the correct size and fit.
