FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The Y-3 Tokyo Trainers are primarily fashion-oriented footwear. While they offer comfort for walking and daily wear, they are not designed for high-impact athletic activities like running.
How do I clean the black suede and leather?
For suede, use a suede brush and eraser. For leather, wipe with a damp cloth or use a specialized leather cleaner. Avoid soaking the materials in water.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the rubber sole offers some protection, suede and leather are best kept dry. Prolonged exposure to wet conditions can damage the materials. Consider using a water-repellent spray designed for suede and leather.
What does 'Unisex' mean for sizing?
Unisex means the design is intended for all genders. The sizing provided (e.g., UK 5) refers to standard adult foot measurements.
How durable is the rubber sole?
The rubber sole is designed to be durable for everyday use, providing good traction on common surfaces. However, like all soles, wear will occur over time with consistent use.
What is the difference between Y-3 Tokyo Trainers and Y-3 Tokyo Sneakers?
The product information indicates 'Trainers' and 'Sneakers' can be used interchangeably for the Y-3 Tokyo models. Specific differences might relate to minor design variations or material finishes within the collection, but both are generally fashion-focused footwear.
Troubleshooting
Trainer feels too tight
Loosen the laces and try adjusting them for a more comfortable fit. If still too tight, consider if the size is appropriate for your foot.
Suede appears matted or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, try a suede eraser.
Leather creases excessively
This is normal for leather. Ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees for storage to help maintain shape. Gentle conditioning can also help.
Rubber sole is slippery
Ensure the sole is clean and free from debris. The tread may be worn down on heavily used shoes, reducing grip.

- Leather: Wipe leather surfaces with a slightly damp cloth. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, use a leather cleaner and conditioner specifically designed for footwear.
