FAQs
Are these trainers machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the delicate satin material and the structural integrity of the shoe. Only spot clean with professional-grade fabric products.
Do these trainers run true to size?
The Saint Laurent Altman series follows standard sizing. It is recommended to choose your typical European or UK size based on your existing footwear collection.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended. Satin is highly absorbent, and water can cause spots or discoloration. Avoid wearing them in wet weather.
What is the primary material used?
These trainers are primarily constructed from high-quality satin, providing a smooth finish and lightweight feel.
What kind of socks should I wear with these?
No-show or thin dress socks are recommended to maintain the low-profile look of the silhouette.
Troubleshooting
Visible dust or lint on the surface
Use a lint roller or a soft-bristled garment brush to gently lift debris without scratching the satin.
Creasing at the toe box
Insert shoe trees immediately after taking them off to help the fabric maintain its shape and reduce permanent creasing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Saint Laurent Altman Trainers remain in optimal condition, proper care is essential:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry brush to gently remove surface dust. For minor spots, use a specialized textile cleaner meant for delicate fabrics. Never submerge the trainers in water.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the satin color over time. Using shoe trees is recommended to maintain their shape.
- Protection: Consider using a fabric-safe water repellent spray designed for silk or satin to add a layer of protection against minor spills.
- Compatibility: These trainers feature a standard fit. If you are between sizes, consider trying them on with the socks you intend to wear to ensure proper heel lock.
