FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While they feature Max Air cushioning, these are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers for urban walking rather than dedicated long-distance performance running shoes.

How do I secure the toggle laces?

Tighten the laces through the loops, then slide the toggle down toward the eyelet to lock the tension in place.

Can I wash these in a washing machine?

It is not recommended, as machine agitation and heat can damage the leather and the integrity of the Max Air units. Stick to hand cleaning.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is a mix of real leather, synthetic leather, and breathable mesh for durability and ventilation.

Do these provide arch support?

Yes, they feature a rigid plastic arch on the midsole that provides stability and support for the midfoot.

Are these waterproof?

No, they are not waterproof; the mesh panels allow for airflow, so they may soak through in heavy rain.

Troubleshooting

Toggle lace system feels loose or slips

Check that the internal spring inside the toggle is free of grit or sand; clear with compressed air if necessary.

Creasing on the leather upper

Use shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the structure and minimize deep creases.

Discoloration of the mesh

Gently spot clean with a mixture of water and gentle laundry detergent using a microfibre cloth; air dry completely away from direct heat.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your trainers, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fit: The shoes follow standard UK sizing. Ensure the toggle is adjusted so the laces are snug but not restricting circulation.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh. For the leather and suede areas, use a dedicated leather cleaner or a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid soaking the suede, as this can affect its texture.
  3. Storage: Keep away from direct sunlight or high-heat sources to prevent the synthetic materials and foam from degrading. Always store in a cool, dry place.
  4. Maintenance: Periodically check the lace toggle for any debris buildup to ensure the tension mechanism operates smoothly.
