FAQs

How do I determine my UK size for these sneakers?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by the brand or retailer. Generally, consider your usual shoe size. These are listed in UK adult sizing. Comparing with a well-fitting sneaker can also help.

Can I wear these sneakers in wet weather?

While the leather is treated, it is not fully waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage and water stains. Consider using a waterproofing spray designed for leather.

How often should I clean my sneakers?

Clean the sneakers after each significant wear, especially the leather parts, to remove dirt and oils. A light wipe-down is recommended after casual use, with deeper cleaning needed for noticeable marks.

What is the difference between the included laces and the extra set?

The product description indicates both sets are bi-colour laces. The extra set is provided for variety in styling or as a replacement should the original set become damaged.

Is the oversized sole comfortable for long walks?

The oversized sole is designed for style but also offers cushioning and support. Many users find them comfortable for extended wear, but individual comfort can vary based on foot shape and walking habits.

How do I care for the signature stamp design on the sole?

The rubber sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing on the stamped area to preserve the design's clarity.

Are these sneakers suitable for sports or athletic activities?

No, these are fashion sneakers designed for lifestyle wear. They are not intended for high-impact sports or athletic training.

Troubleshooting

Leather scuffing or scratching

For minor scuffs, try gently buffing with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper scratches, consider using a leather conditioner or a cream polish matching the shoe color. Prevention is key; be mindful of surroundings.

Sole losing its shape

Ensure the shoes are stored correctly on a shoe tree or stuffed with paper when not in use. Avoid leaving them in extreme temperatures.

Discoloration of white leather

Clean regularly with a damp cloth. For stubborn yellowing, specialized leather cleaners or mild bleaching agents (used with extreme caution and tested on an inconspicuous area first) may be necessary. Sunlight can sometimes cause yellowing; store away from direct light.

Laces fraying

Replace frayed laces with the included extra set or a similar quality replacement. Hand wash laces gently to prolong their life.

Care Instructions:
