FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, these are lifestyle sneakers designed for casual wear and comfort, not for athletic performance like running.

What is the main difference between these and classic Superstars?

The primary difference is the 'XLG' (Xtra-Large) sole, which is an oversized iteration offering a more contemporary look and enhanced cushioning compared to the original Superstar silhouette.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner and follow the product's instructions. Allow to air dry away from direct heat.

What does 'Core Black White Gold Metallic' refer to?

This colorway indicates the primary colors: 'Core Black' for the main body, 'White' likely for the 3-Stripes and shell toe, and 'Gold Metallic' for accent details.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, they are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain can damage the leather and affect the shoe's longevity.

What is the material of the shoe?

The upper is primarily made of leather, providing a premium feel and durability.

How should I store these shoes when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.

Troubleshooting

Leather scuff marks

For minor scuffs, try buffing gently with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, use a specialized leather conditioner or cleaner, following product instructions.

Discoloration on metallic accents

Gently wipe the gold metallic accents with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive rubbing which can damage the finish.

Soles feel slippery

Ensure the rubber soles are clean and free from mud or debris. For persistent slipperiness on certain surfaces, consider a cobbler for potential sole treatments.
