Full details

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The 'UK D Wider' fitting is designed for a broader foot, but if still too snug, try wearing thinner socks or remove the insole if it significantly impacts internal space. Leather may also require a short break-in period.
Slight squeaking sound
This can sometimes occur with new footwear. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole. If the squeak persists and seems to come from the sole, ensure the sole is clean and dry.
Leather showing scuffs or marks
Use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner to buff out minor marks. For deeper scuffs, a leather repair balm or color-matched polish may be necessary. Always test products on an inconspicuous area first.
Removable insole is difficult to remove
Gently pull the insole upwards from the heel. If it feels stuck, ensure there is no debris or adhesive residue. Avoid yanking, as this could damage the insole or shoe lining.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for women and are suitable for adult wear. The 'UK D Wider' fitting is designed for those who require a bit more room in the shoe. They are best suited for casual wear and everyday activities.
Care:
- Cleaning the Leather Upper: Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner, following the product instructions. Allow to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
- Sole Care: Clean the PU sole with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the material.
- Insole Care: The removable insoles can be gently wiped with a damp cloth. Allow them to air dry completely before reinserting. If they become heavily soiled, consider washing them with mild soap and water, ensuring they are fully dry before use.
- Storage: Store the trainers in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and moisture.
