FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The Clae Bradley 99 trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday activities. They do not offer the specialized support or cushioning required for running or intense athletic training.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For more persistent dirt, use a dedicated leather cleaner sparingly, following the product's instructions. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
While the leather can offer some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. For heavy rain or wet conditions, it is advisable to wear waterproof footwear. Applying a leather protectant spray can enhance water resistance.
What is the main benefit of the low-top design?
The low-top design provides greater ankle mobility and flexibility, contributing to overall comfort during extended periods of wear.
How do I ensure the best fit?
The trainers feature a lace-up fastening system that allows for a secure and adjustable fit. Ensure the laces are tied to your preference for optimal comfort and support.
Are there other color options available?
Yes, the Clae Bradley series often comes in various colorways and materials. Please refer to the product listings for available options.
Troubleshooting
Laces becoming untied frequently
Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot, or consider replacing them with laces that offer better grip.
Leather creasing or cracking
Regularly condition the leather with a suitable product to keep it supple. Avoid bending the shoes excessively when not being worn.
Discomfort on the heel or arch
Ensure the correct size is being worn. Consider using insoles or adding a heel protector for additional cushioning or support.
Slight color transfer to socks
This can occur with new, dark-colored footwear. It is usually temporary and will lessen with wear. Wash socks separately for the first few wears.

Compatibility:
The Clae Bradley 99 trainers are designed for unisex adult wear and are compatible with a wide range of casual and smart-casual wardrobes. They are best suited for dry to moderately damp conditions. For very wet weather, alternative footwear might be more appropriate.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For tougher stains, a mild leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the shoes.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
- Protection: Consider using a leather protectant spray to help repel water and stains, especially when new.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box to maintain shape and prevent dust accumulation.
