FAQs
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, these trainers are primarily made of suede and canvas, which are not inherently waterproof. It is recommended to use a waterproofing spray for added protection against light moisture, but they are not suitable for heavy rain.
How should I clean the green suede?
Regularly use a dry suede brush to remove dust and dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions. Avoid using water directly on the suede as it can cause discoloration or damage.
What kind of socks are best with these trainers?
Ankle socks or trainer socks are ideal for a clean, casual look. Crew socks can also work depending on the outfit. Choose socks that complement the green color of the trainers.
Can I wear these for sports?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and light activity. They are not recommended for rigorous sports or athletic performance due to their construction and materials.
What is the typical fit of Fred Perry Kingston trainers?
The Kingston trainers generally have a standard fit. However, suede can sometimes be slightly snug initially and may stretch slightly with wear. It's best to try them on if possible or refer to sizing guides.
How do I maintain the color of the green suede?
Protecting the suede with a color-restoring suede protector spray can help maintain its vibrancy. Avoid exposing the trainers to prolonged direct sunlight, which can cause fading.
What does the Laurel Wreath embroidery signify?
The Laurel Wreath is the iconic symbol of Fred Perry, representing the brand's heritage in sport and subculture fashion.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears stained or discolored
Use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully. For stubborn stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner.
Trainers feel tight or uncomfortable
Ensure laces are loosened before putting them on and then adjusted for a snug, but not constricting, fit. If the fit remains problematic, consider if the size is appropriate or if insoles might help.
Canvas sections look dirty
Gently wipe the canvas with a damp cloth. For minor marks, a soft brush may also be effective. Avoid machine washing or soaking.
Laces are worn or frayed
Replace laces with a new pair of similar length and color. Fred Perry branded laces can be sourced, or standard flat laces can be used.
