FAQs
Are these sneakers true to size?
Yes, the Axel Arigato Clay Sneaker generally fits true to standard UK sizing.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather, suede, and adhesive bonds. Only spot clean by hand.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is crafted from a combination of high-quality leather and premium suede accents.
Are the insoles removable?
Most models feature a removable insole, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.
Does the gold branding fade easily?
With normal wear, the branding is durable, but avoid scrubbing the gold-toned areas directly with harsh detergents.
Are these shoes suitable for wet weather?
While they are sturdy, the suede material is sensitive to moisture. We recommend using a water-repellent spray if you plan to wear them in damp conditions.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the toe box
Natural creasing is expected with leather shoes; use shoe trees when storing to minimize deep set wrinkles.
Difficulty removing surface dirt from suede
Use a specialized suede eraser or a soft-bristled brush to gently lift dirt without damaging the nap.
Laces becoming undone
Ensure a double-knot or tuck the ends into the side of the shoe for a clean look and secure fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Axel Arigato Clay Sneakers, follow these care instructions:
- Protective Spray: Apply a professional-grade leather and suede water-repellent spray before the first wear to guard against spills and debris.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the suede portions. For the leather, wipe gently with a damp, lint-free cloth and mild soap if necessary.
- Storage: Store the sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather fading. Use cedar shoe trees to maintain their structured shape when not in use.
- Compatibility: These sneakers pair best with cuffed trousers, chinos, or classic denim, making them highly compatible with modern, clean-lined wardrobes.
