FAQs
What is the primary material used in the upper?
The upper is a blend of calfskin leather (40%), polyester (45%), and polyurethane (15%).
Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday use, inspired by retro running styles. They are not intended for high-performance athletic activities.
How should I clean the vintage finish?
Wipe gently with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners as they can alter the distressed, worn-in appearance which is part of the design.
What is the sole made of?
The sole is made of 100% thermoplastic rubber.
Can the insole be removed?
Yes, the trainers feature a removable leather insole, allowing for custom orthotics if needed.
What does the 'vintage/worn-in effect' mean?
This refers to a design treatment applied to the upper panels to give them a pre-aged or intentionally distressed appearance, adding character to the sneakers.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the UK sizing indicated. It's recommended to know your standard UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider the width and intended use.
Troubleshooting
Laces wear out or break
Replace with standard shoelaces. Consider a similar length and color, or experiment with a contrasting style.
Slight odor develops
Remove insoles and air out the shoes. Use a deodorizing spray or insert activated charcoal inserts. Ensure feet are clean and dry before wearing.
Visible wear on the vintage effect
The vintage effect is intentional. Further wear will naturally enhance this characteristic. Avoid applying excessive cleaning agents that might alter the distressed look.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the sole is clean and free from debris. The treaded pattern offers grip, but performance can vary on exceptionally smooth or wet surfaces. Consider a sole protector if significant slippage occurs.
