FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and light walking. They are not engineered for high-impact running, which requires specialized athletic footwear for adequate support and cushioning.
How do I clean the black leather?
Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a cleaner specifically designed for black leather, always testing on an inconspicuous area first.
What is the heel height?
The heel height for these trainers is 35mm.
Can I wear these with orthotics?
The trainers feature a standard footbed. Depending on the size and shape of your orthotics, you may be able to replace the existing insole. It is recommended to try them with your orthotics if possible.
What does 'Strobel construction' mean for the shoe?
Strobel construction refers to how the upper part of the shoe is stitched to the lasting material, often resulting in a lighter, more flexible shoe that feels more like a second skin.
What other colours are available in the Hollyrose Zip series?
The Hollyrose Zip series is also available in Gold and White leather finishes, among other potential variations.
Is the sizing UK standard?
Yes, the sizing indicated, such as 'UK 6', refers to the standard UK adult foot sizing.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty zipping up
Ensure laces are loosened sufficiently before attempting to zip. Check the zipper track for any debris that might be obstructing it.
Shoes feel too tight
Adjust the laces to provide more room. If still uncomfortable, ensure you have selected the correct size, as fit can vary slightly.
Leather creasing
Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather. To minimize, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees for storage.
Slight squeaking noise
A small amount of talcum powder or chalk can be applied to the insole or where parts of the shoe rub together to reduce noise.
