FAQs

Are these suitable for long-distance running?

No, the Train 89 is designed for casual lifestyle wear rather than professional athletic or long-distance running.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Wipe away dirt with a damp, soft cloth. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner suitable for the specific leather type.

Does the sizing run true?

Yes, they generally fit true to standard adult UK sizing, though the silhouette is somewhat slim.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, you can swap the factory insoles for custom orthotics if preferred, provided they fit the internal dimensions of the shoe.

How long will the leather last?

With regular conditioning and proper care, the premium leather used in the Train 89 is designed for longevity and everyday use.

Troubleshooting

Leather surface appears dull

Apply a small amount of leather polish or conditioner using a soft microfiber cloth.

Creasing at the toe box

Use a shoe tree when not in use to help the leather maintain its shape and minimize deep creases.

Tight fit around the instep

Ensure laces are properly loosened; if discomfort persists, consider using thinner socks until the leather softens.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these trainers are crafted from leather, proper maintenance is essential to retain their look. We recommend applying a high-quality leather conditioner every few months to prevent cracking. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to stiffen. Compatibility-wise, these sneakers run true to standard sizing, though users with wider feet may find the slim profile of the Train 89 fits snugly. We suggest using a shoe horn when putting them on to protect the heel structure.
