FAQs
Are these sneakers suitable for running?
No, the Dottie Trainers are designed for lifestyle and fashion wear, not for athletic performance or running.
How do I determine if the size 9.5 is right for me?
These follow standard UK adult sizing. We recommend checking your foot length against standard size guides if you are between sizes.
Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesive on the platform sole. Hand cleaning only is recommended.
Does the red color fade easily?
While the color is high-quality, avoiding prolonged exposure to direct UV sunlight will help maintain the vibrancy of the red leather.
Is the sole non-slip?
The rubber platform provides reasonable traction for urban surfaces, but it is not specifically engineered as a non-slip safety shoe.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels stiff upon first wear
Wear them indoors for short periods with thick socks to gently stretch and break in the material.
Scuffs on the rubber platform
Use a specialized rubber cleaner or a melamine sponge to gently buff out marks on the white sole unit.
Laces coming untied
Double-knot the laces or swap for wax-coated laces to improve grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Dottie trainers maintain their quality, follow these care steps:
- Initial Setup: Ensure the laces are adjusted to your comfort level before first use to prevent friction.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather surface with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging in water.
- Conditioning: Use a leather conditioner periodically to prevent the material from drying out or cracking.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading of the red finish.
- Compatibility: These trainers fit true to standard sizing, but it is recommended to wear thin-to-medium thickness socks to maintain the intended fit.
