FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
No, these trainers are designed for casual wear and lifestyle purposes, not for running or high-impact sports. They feature a low-profile cupsole which offers comfort but lacks the specialized support and cushioning of athletic running shoes.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Wipe the leather with a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a mild leather cleaner specifically designed for shoes, and always test on a small, hidden area first. Allow to air dry completely.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage and discoloration to the leather.
What is the best way to store these trainers?
Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally using shoe trees to help maintain their shape. Keep them away from direct sunlight and heat sources, which can dry out and damage the leather.
How often should I condition the leather?
Conditioning frequency depends on usage and climate. A general guideline is every 3-6 months, or whenever the leather appears dry. This helps keep the material supple and prevents cracking.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
This specific guide is for the triple black variant. Other colorways may be available depending on the retailer and current stock.
What UK shoe size is equivalent to US size X?
Sizing can vary between brands. For Calvin Klein, a UK 5.5 generally corresponds to a US 7.5 for men. It is always recommended to check the brand's specific size chart for the most accurate conversion.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight.
Loosen the laces and ensure they are evenly distributed. If the issue persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if the leather needs a break-in period.
Creasing on leather.
Creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid bending the shoes excessively during wear.
Discoloration from water.
Avoid wearing in heavy rain. If they get wet, dry them naturally away from direct heat and apply leather conditioner once dry.
Laces are worn out.
Replace laces with a similar style and length from a shoe care retailer.
