FAQs
What material is the main upper of the trainers made from?
The upper is made from 100% smooth calfskin leather, which is polyurethane-coated for added durability and finish.
How do I determine the correct size, given they run large?
It is recommended to consider choosing one size smaller than your usual UK size. Consulting a detailed size chart or trying them on if possible is advised.
Are these trainers suitable for athletic activities?
While they feature a cushioned midsole and rubber outsole for comfort and grip, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers for everyday wear rather than high-impact sports.
Can the insoles be replaced?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing for easy cleaning or replacement with custom orthotics if desired.
How should I clean the white leather exterior?
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For more persistent marks, a specialized leather cleaner for coated leather can be used, always testing on a small, hidden area first.
What is the outsole made of?
The outsole is constructed from 100% ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), providing a lightweight and cushioning effect with non-slip properties.
What is the overall silhouette of these trainers?
They feature a streamlined lo-top silhouette, offering a modern and versatile design.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels too large
As the model runs large, consider ordering one size smaller than your usual fit. If already purchased, utilize the removable insole for a snugger feel or consider adding an insole liner.
Leather scuffs or marks appear
Gently wipe the affected area with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a specific leather cleaner recommended for calfskin leather. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
Laces do not stay tied
Ensure the laces are properly threaded and tied with a secure knot. If the lace material is particularly smooth, consider a double knot for extra security.
Discomfort from padding
The padded trims are designed for comfort. If discomfort persists, ensure the laces are not overtightened, which can increase pressure. Wear the shoes for shorter periods initially to allow them to break in.
