FAQs
Can I replace the original insole with my own orthotics?
Yes, the ARA Osaka Trainers feature a removable footbed specifically to accommodate personal orthotic inserts.
How do I clean the smooth leather?
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and follow up with a leather-specific conditioner to maintain the material's suppleness.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Osaka 2.0 series is designed with a standard ergonomic fit, but the removable insole may provide extra space if you use a thinner insert.
Does the shoe have arch support?
The High Soft footbed is designed to provide balanced anatomical support, catering to the natural contours of the foot.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The trainers are made of high-quality leather, which provides some natural resistance to light moisture, but they are not fully waterproof.
What is the primary material used?
The exterior is constructed from premium smooth leather, while the interior features a bamboo-based footbed.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels damp after a long day
Remove the insole from the trainer to allow it to air dry thoroughly overnight in a well-ventilated area.
Scuff marks on leather
Use a neutral-colored leather polish or a soft eraser designed for leather to gently buff away minor scuffs.
Insole becomes loose
Ensure the insole is seated correctly in the heel cup; if it continues to slip, check for debris inside the shoe cavity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ARA Osaka Trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks for your activity level when trying them on to guarantee the correct fit.
- Care: Clean the smooth leather exterior using a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dust. Use a high-quality leather cream or conditioner periodically to prevent the material from drying out or cracking.
- Insole Maintenance: If you remove the footbed for cleaning, ensure it is completely air-dried before reinserting it into the shoe to prevent odor buildup.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the leather color and prevent material degradation.
