FAQs
What are these shoes best suited for?
The Fred Perry B708 Tennis Shoes are ideal for casual wear, offering comfort and style for everyday urban activities. They are not designed for intense athletic performance.
How do I clean the canvas upper?
Gently clean the canvas with a soft brush or cloth using a mild soap and water mixture. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the canvas upper is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions.
What is the fit like?
These are standard fit trainers. It is recommended to refer to Fred Perry's sizing guide for the most accurate fit, as individual foot shapes can vary.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the gum outsole offers some grip, the canvas upper is not water-resistant, so it's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.
What type of socks are recommended?
Crew socks or no-show socks that complement a casual aesthetic are typically worn with these trainers.
What is the main difference between colourways?
Colourways primarily differ in the main canvas colour and any contrast detailing or embroidery. The core design and construction remain consistent.
Troubleshooting
Canvas appears dirty or stained
Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap solution. Test on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to air dry.
Laces are worn or dirty
Replace laces with a new pair of similar length and colour. Clean existing laces separately with soap and water.
Gum outsole has scuff marks
Try using a magic eraser or a melamine sponge with a little water for minor scuffs. Ensure the eraser is suitable for the material.
Shoes feel slightly stiff initially
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to break them in. The canvas and sole will naturally soften with wear.

- Classic, retro-inspired design suitable for various casual outfits.
- Durable construction with a vulcanised sole for longevity.

- Iconic branding provides a stylish hallmark.
- Versatile for urban environments and everyday activities.
Cons
- Canvas upper may be less water-resistant than leather alternatives.
- Requires regular cleaning to maintain the pristine 'Snow White' appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers require no assembly. Simply remove them from the box and they are ready for immediate wear.
Compatibility: The B708 Tennis Shoe is designed for general adult footwear use. It pairs well with a wide range of casual attire, including jeans, shorts, chinos, and casual trousers.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: For the canvas upper, use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap and water solution to gently clean any marks. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, which can damage the fabric and embroidery.
- Sole Maintenance: Wipe the gum outsole and foxing tape with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a soft brush can be used.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuffing with paper can help maintain shape and absorb moisture during drying.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and prevent deformation.
