FAQs
Are these sneakers true to size?
These are oversized sneakers, which is part of their design. While generally true to standard sizing, the 'oversized' nature refers to the sole and overall silhouette. Trying them on or checking specific user reviews for fit guidance is recommended.
What material is the heel counter made of?
The heel counter features tan suede with the signature McQueen branding.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the rubber sole offers some protection, the leather upper is not waterproof. It is recommended to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and to use a waterproofing spray for added protection.
How do I clean the suede heel counter?
For the suede heel counter, use a suede brush to gently remove dirt. For tougher stains, a suede-specific cleaner may be used, always following the product instructions carefully.
What comes with the sneakers?
Each pair comes with a branded shoe box, an extra set of laces, and a dust bag for storage.
Is the chunky sole heavy?
The chunky rubber sole is designed for durability and aesthetic. While it adds substance, they are generally comfortable for extended wear, typical of the oversized sneaker style.
How often should I condition the leather?
Condition the leather every 6-12 months, or more frequently if exposed to harsh conditions, to keep it supple and prevent drying or cracking.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing or wrinkling
This is natural for leather. Ensure proper fit to minimize excessive creasing. Use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape.
Slight stiffness upon first wear
Leather requires a break-in period. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to mold to your feet.
Scuffs or marks on the rubber sole
Use a damp cloth or a magic eraser (test in an inconspicuous area first) to gently remove scuffs from the rubber sole.
Discoloration from prolonged sun exposure
Store the sneakers away from direct sunlight to prevent fading or discoloration of the leather and suede accents.
