FAQs
Are these sneakers true to size?
The Arla trainers generally follow standard sizing. If you are between sizes or plan to wear thicker socks, some users recommend sizing up by half a size.
Can I wear these for intense sports or running?
No, these are fashion trainers. While they are comfortable for walking and daily activities, they lack the technical support and shock absorption required for high-impact sports.
How do I care for the logo charm?
Gently wipe the logo charm with a dry, soft microfiber cloth after each wear to remove skin oils and prevent tarnishing.
Are these trainers waterproof?
While the leather offers some natural resistance, they are not waterproof. We recommend using a high-quality leather protector spray to improve water repellency.
What does Leather Working Group certification mean?
It means the leather was sourced from tanneries audited for their environmental practices, including water usage, waste management, and chemical handling.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the toe box
Use a shoe tree when not wearing the trainers to help the leather maintain its shape and minimize deep-set creases.
Scuff marks on the white sole
Use a specialized rubber eraser or a magic sponge dampened with water to gently buff away black scuff marks from the rubber base.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Arla trainers stay in optimal condition, begin by applying a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray before the first use. Given their white color, spot clean the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth and a mild leather-safe cleaner. Avoid machine washing, as the heat and agitation can damage the leather and the integrity of the bonded sole. For the laces, remove them periodically to hand-wash in warm soapy water. When storing, keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the white leather from yellowing or cracking over time.
