Full details
The Boss Aiden Contrast Trainer is designed for the modern adult male seeking a stylish and versatile casual footwear option. Its key benefit lies in combining genuine leather detailing with a durable, synthetic grained fabric for a sophisticated yet practical look.

FAQs
What is the primary material of the Boss Aiden Contrast Trainer?
The trainer features a combination of genuine leather detailing and coated synthetic grained fabric for the upper.
Are these trainers suitable for athletic activities?
No, these are casual trainers designed for everyday wear and style, not for strenuous athletic performance.
How should I clean the synthetic parts of the trainer?
Wipe the synthetic fabric with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For tougher marks, a mild soap solution can be used cautiously.
What does 'Contrast Trainer' mean in this context?
It refers to the design where different materials (genuine leather and synthetic fabric) and potentially colors or textures are used together to create visual interest.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the materials offer some protection, they are not waterproof. It is best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. Ensure they are dried thoroughly if they get wet.
What is the heel height?
The heel height is flat, providing a stable and comfortable base for casual wear.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Utilize the lace-fastener system to adjust the tightness. Ensure your heel is secure and there is adequate room in the toe box without being too loose.
Troubleshooting
Trainer feels too tight/loose
Adjust the laces. If still uncomfortable, consider if the size is correct or if insoles are needed.
Surface marks on synthetic fabric
Gently wipe with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and rinse with a clean damp cloth.
Leather details appear dry
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner specifically designed for footwear, following the product's instructions.
Odors inside the trainer
Remove insoles if possible and air out the trainers. Sprinkle baking soda inside overnight and then vacuum it out before wearing.

Compatibility: The Boss Aiden Contrast Trainer is designed as casual footwear and is compatible with a wide range of casual and smart-casual clothing. They pair well with jeans, chinos, shorts, and casual trousers.
Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your trainers:
- Wipe Clean: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt from both the synthetic fabric and leather details. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Leather Care: For the genuine leather parts, a specialized leather conditioner can be used sparingly to keep them supple, following product instructions.
- Drying: If the trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
