FAQs
What is the heel height and platform height?
The heel height is approximately 4.5 cm, and the platform height is approximately 3.5 cm.
Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?
No, these are fashion sneakers designed for style and comfort during everyday wear. The oversized sole is not intended for athletic performance.
How do I determine my correct size?
The sizing is European. It is recommended to refer to the brand's specific size chart or consult customer reviews for fit guidance, as these tend to fit true to size.
Do these sneakers come with a dust bag?
To lessen environmental impact, Alexander McQueen no longer provides dust bags with their sneakers.
How should I clean the black smooth calf leather?
Clean with a soft, dry cloth for dust. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth and wipe gently. Avoid excessive moisture and harsh chemicals.
What is the main material used for the sneaker?
The main material is smooth calfskin leather, with a rubber sole and calf leather lining.
Can I return these if they don't fit?
Return policies vary by retailer. Please check the specific return policy of the store where you purchased the sneakers.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes occur due to friction between the sole and the footbed. Try inserting a thin insole or talcum powder under the insole to reduce friction.
Leather creasing
Creasing is natural with genuine leather. To minimize it, avoid over-bending the shoe and consider using shoe trees when not in use.
Discoloration on leather
Use a dedicated leather cleaner suitable for smooth calfskin. Always test the cleaner on a small, hidden area first. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive rubbing.
Sole scuff marks
Minor scuffs can often be removed with a magic eraser or a soft cloth with a small amount of non-abrasive cleaning paste. Be gentle to avoid damaging the sole material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
These sneakers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure the laces are tied to your preferred comfort level.
Compatibility:
These trainers are designed for adult wear and are compatible with a wide range of casual and fashion-forward outfits. They pair well with jeans, trousers, skirts, and dresses. Note that due to their design, they are best suited for everyday wear rather than athletic activities.
Care:
- Material: The primary material is smooth calf leather. Clean with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth and wipe gently. Avoid excessive moisture.
- Suede/Leather Trim: If applicable to specific colorways, use specialized leather cleaners and conditioners. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
- Sole: Wipe the oversized rubber sole with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, a soft brush and mild soap can be used carefully, ensuring no residue remains.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. To reduce environmental impact, dust bags are no longer provided with new sneakers. Consider a shoe tree to maintain shape.
- Laces: Clean laces by hand with mild soap and water, or replace them if they become heavily soiled.
