FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While based on 1980s distance running designs, the GL 1600 is a lifestyle trainer intended for casual, daily use, not for active sports or long-distance training.

How do I clean the suede parts?

Use a dry suede brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a specific suede-safe cleaner and a soft brush, ensuring the shoes dry naturally.

Does the shoe run true to size?

Yes, the GL 1600 is designed as a regular fit and generally aligns with standard adult UK sizing.

Can these be machine washed?

No, machine washing will damage the suede material and compromise the structural integrity of the trainers.

Are these trainers waterproof?

They are not waterproof. Due to the suede construction, it is recommended to avoid heavy rain or standing water.

What is the primary material used?

The upper is crafted from a combination of high-quality suede and other performance materials to create the signature 1980s layered look.

Troubleshooting

Surface dirt on suede

Use a specialized suede brush and brush in one direction to gently lift dust and dirt.

Water spots on material

Blot the area with a dry cloth to absorb moisture, then allow it to air dry fully before brushing with a suede brush.

Loose fit or discomfort

Adjust the lace tension starting from the bottom eyelets to customize the lockdown across the bridge of the foot.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Classic 1980s aesthetic
  • Sophisticated, versatile color palette
  • High-quality multi-texture construction
  • Suitable for regular daily wear

Cons

  • Suede material requires specialized cleaning
  • Not intended for high-intensity athletic performance
  • Sensitive to heavy rain or mud

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers arrive ready to wear right out of the box with standard lacing. To ensure they remain in peak condition, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the suede. For cleaning, avoid submerging them in water. Instead, use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently remove surface dust and debris. If the material becomes stained, use a dedicated suede cleaner and allow the shoes to air dry naturally, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent material cracking or warping.
