FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The suede upper is treated for durability but is not fully waterproof. It is best to use a protective spray to increase water resistance.
Can the insoles be removed?
The insoles are generally fixed, but the interior space is designed to accommodate the WARMTECH lining comfortably.
How do I choose the right size?
These follow standard UK sizing; however, since they are lined for warmth, consider how thick your socks will be when selecting your size.
Can I wear these in heavy snow?
While they provide warmth, they are designed as lifestyle trainers rather than performance snow boots and are best suited for dry or light-weather conditions.
How should I clean the WARMTECH lining?
Use a damp cloth with mild soap to spot clean the interior, then allow to air dry in a well-ventilated area.
Troubleshooting
Zip mechanism feels stiff
Apply a small amount of clear candle wax or a dedicated zipper lubricant to the teeth to ensure smooth operation.
Surface dirt on suede
Allow the mud to dry completely, then use a suede brush to gently lift the debris away from the fibers.
Water spots on suede
Lightly dampen the entire suede surface with a cloth, blot, and let it air dry away from direct heat sources.
Pros and Cons
Pros

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers feature a suede exterior, it is highly recommended to apply a suede-specific water-repellent spray before the first use to protect against moisture and stains. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemicals that could damage the suede nap. To ensure compatibility, consider that the WARMTECH lining adds volume inside; if you intend to wear very thick wool socks, you may find the fit slightly snugger than standard non-lined trainers.
