FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for actual Taekwondo practice?

While inspired by the aesthetic, these are fashion sneakers meant for daily wear and do not offer the specialized protection of professional martial arts footwear.

How do I determine my size?

The Taekwondo Mei features a regular fit; it is recommended to purchase your standard UK shoe size for the best comfort.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, they are made of leather and are not intended to be waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, if you require additional arch support, you can remove the existing insole and replace it with a thin orthotic insert.

What is the best way to clean the rubber outsole?

A soft-bristled brush dipped in mild soapy water is sufficient to clean dirt and debris from the rubber tread.

Troubleshooting

Creasing appearing on the leather upper

Use cedar shoe trees when not wearing to help the leather maintain its shape and absorb excess moisture.

Slippage at the heel while walking

Re-adjust the lacing tension using the extra eyelets to create a more secure lock around the midfoot.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight design suitable for all-day comfort
  • High-quality leather construction for improved durability
  • Reliable rubber traction for stable footing
  • Multiple lacing options for a personalized style

  • Low-cut design offers limited ankle support

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Taekwondo Mei shoes remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

Setup:

Upon unboxing, experiment with the different lacing options to find the tension that works best for your foot shape.

Compatibility:

These shoes are designed for female sizing and fit true to size. They pair well with tapered pants, leggings, or jeans.

Care:

  1. Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth after use to remove dirt.
  2. Use a professional-grade leather cleaner periodically to keep the material supple.
  3. Avoid soaking the shoes in water or putting them in a washing machine, as this can degrade the leather and adhesive.
  4. If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper and allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators.
