FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the leather and suede construction is not waterproof. It is advisable to apply a protective spray specifically designed for leather and suede to offer basic resistance to light moisture.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and the leather/suede materials. Clean them manually with a soft cloth and appropriate cleaning agents.
Are the insoles removable?
The product features a standard internal design. While some users may swap them for orthotics, they are not intended to be removed for standard cleaning.
How do I choose the correct size?
The trainers follow standard UK sizing for adults. If you are between sizes, consider the structure of the leather, which may allow for a slight break-in period.
What is the primary use for these shoes?
They are designed as lifestyle trainers for casual, everyday wear rather than specialized performance athletic gear.
Does the leather require conditioning?
Occasional use of a leather conditioner can help keep the leather portion supple and prevent cracking over time.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone during activity
Ensure you are using a double knot if the laces are sliding, or replace with slightly textured athletic laces for better friction.
Suede showing scuff marks
Use a dedicated suede eraser or a soft suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove superficial scuffs.
Interior feeling slightly tight
Re-thread the laces to allow for more volume in the forefoot area or ensure you are wearing thin, moisture-wicking athletic socks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
There is no complex setup required; simply adjust the lace-up fastening to achieve your preferred tension. Regarding care, because the shoe incorporates leather and suede, it is recommended to use a specialized soft-bristle brush to remove surface dust and dirt. Avoid machine washing, which can damage the bonding agents and the delicate suede finish. If the trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, which can cause the leather to crack or the materials to warp.
