FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running or high-impact sports?
While they boast an athletic heritage and offer comfort for active use like gym sessions or walks, the Axel Arigato Marathon Trainers are primarily designed as retro-inspired lifestyle footwear rather than high-performance running shoes for intense activities.
What materials are used in the construction of these trainers?
These trainers feature a premium blend of breathable mesh and high-quality leather panelling for the upper, complemented by reflective details and a cushioned insole for comfort.
How do I choose the correct size?
The trainers are listed in UK women's sizes. It is generally recommended to select your standard UK shoe size. If you are typically between sizes, consider trying the next half size up for optimal comfort, especially if you plan to wear thicker socks.
Can I machine wash these trainers for cleaning?
No, machine washing is not recommended. The premium leather and mesh materials, along with the adhesives, can be damaged by machine washing. Please follow the care instructions to clean them with a soft, damp cloth.
Do the reflective details provide actual visibility?
Yes, the integrated reflective details are designed to add a subtle element of visibility, which can be particularly useful in lower light conditions for added safety and style.
What is the significance of the silicone logo?
The signature Axel Arigato silicone logo on the tongue serves as a distinct designer touch, signifying the brand's authenticity and attention to detail in its premium footwear.
How do I prevent creasing on the leather parts?
To minimize creasing, ensure the trainers fit well and avoid bending them excessively. Using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain their shape and reduce the appearance of creases in the leather.
Troubleshooting
My trainers feel too tight or too loose.
Adjust the lace tension. For tightness, slightly loosen the laces, ensuring even distribution. For looseness, tighten them securely but comfortably across the foot. Experiment with different lacing patterns if discomfort persists.
The white areas of my trainers are getting dirty quickly.
Regularly wipe down white surfaces with a soft, damp cloth immediately after noticing dirt or scuffs. For more stubborn marks, a gentle shoe cleaner designed for leather and mesh can be used, followed by a wipe with a clean, damp cloth. Prompt cleaning is key.
My feet feel hot or sweaty after prolonged wear.
While the trainers feature breathable mesh, consider wearing moisture-wicking socks to help manage perspiration. Ensure the trainers are well-ventilated between uses to air out and dry completely.

Care Instructions
To maintain the pristine condition and longevity of your Axel Arigato Marathon Trainers, regular and proper care is essential:
- Cleaning: Clean them regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and surface grime. For stubborn marks on leather or mesh, a gentle shoe cleaner specifically formulated for these materials can be used, followed by a wipe with a clean, damp cloth.
- Drying: Always allow your trainers to air dry naturally. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as these can damage the materials and adhesives.
- Storage: Store trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent material degradation and discolouration.
