Product Information

Full details

This guide is for fashion-conscious adults seeking a blend of iconic style and everyday comfort. The key benefit is the statement-making aesthetic and premium feel of the smooth calfskin leather. A potential caveat is that the oversized sole, while stylish, may require an adjustment period for some users in terms of feel and walking gait. These sneakers feature a distinctive oversized rubber sole, large flat bi-colour laces, and a contrast rubber heel counter with the McQueen signature, offering a bold, contemporary look.

FAQs

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer. These sneakers generally run true to size, but the oversized sole might affect the initial perception of fit. Consider trying them on if possible.

Are these sneakers suitable for athletic activities?

No, these are fashion sneakers designed for style and casual comfort, not for high-impact sports or athletic training.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the leather can withstand light moisture, it is not recommended for heavy rain. Protect them from excessive water, and ensure they are thoroughly dried if they get wet.

How do I clean the contrast heel counter?

Use a soft, damp cloth. For tougher grime, a mild soap solution and a soft brush can be used, followed by wiping with a clean damp cloth.

What is the purpose of the oversized sole?

The oversized sole is a signature design element of these sneakers, providing a bold aesthetic and enhancing cushioning and comfort for everyday wear.

Do the sneakers come in different colorways?

This specific guide focuses on the White/Black colorway. Other color options may be available depending on the season and retailer.

How often should I clean my sneakers?

Regular light cleaning after wear (wiping down dust) is recommended. Deep cleaning should be performed as needed, typically when visible dirt or stains accumulate.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound from sole

This can sometimes occur with new rubber soles. Try flexing the sole gently or wearing them for a few more hours. If persistent, ensure no debris is trapped between the sole layers.

Laces fraying or breaking

Use the additional set of laces provided. For future replacements, ensure you use laces of similar material and thickness.

Leather creasing excessively

Some creasing is natural with leather. Ensure proper fit. Using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain shape and minimize deep creases.

Discoloration on white leather

Use a specialized white leather cleaner and a soft cloth. For persistent stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dust and light dirt. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
  2. Sole Care: Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material or the signature stamp.

  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in the original box or a dust bag to protect the leather and maintain shape. Avoid direct sunlight and extreme heat.
