FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to standard UK sizing, though the shell-toe can make the front feel slightly more snug than mesh trainers.
Can I wear these for sports?
While originally designed for basketball, modern versions like this are intended for casual lifestyle and streetwear use.
How do I remove scuffs from the shell-toe?
Most scuffs on the rubber shell can be removed using a magic eraser or a simple mixture of warm water and mild dish soap.
Is the leather upper waterproof?
No, the leather is water-resistant to a degree but the perforations allow water to enter, so they are not recommended for heavy rain.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, you can remove the existing insoles to replace them with orthotics or custom cushioned inserts if needed.
Troubleshooting
The leather upper feels stiff.
Wear the shoes for short periods around the house to break in the leather gradually before taking them on long walks.
Difficulty keeping the white leather clean.
Apply a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray shortly after purchase to protect against dirt accumulation.
