These sneakers typically run true to standard UK sizing. We recommend referring to a size conversion chart if you are familiar with US or EU sizing, or trying them on to ensure the best fit.

While the leather offers some resistance to light moisture, these sneakers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided to protect the leather from water damage and staining. Consider applying a water-repellent spray for added protection.

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Using shoe trees will help maintain their shape, and storing them in their original box or a breathable shoe bag will protect them from dust and damage.

Yes, these sneakers are crafted with high-quality leather which is known for its durability. With proper care and maintenance, they are designed to withstand regular everyday wear and maintain their appearance over time.

Use shoe trees regularly, especially after wearing, to help maintain the shoe's shape. Consider applying a leather conditioner to keep the material supple.

This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of baby powder underneath, then reinserting it. If the squeak persists, check if the tongue or laces are rubbing against other parts of the shoe.

Ensure you have the correct size. Leather shoes often require a 'break-in' period. Wear them for short durations around the house with thick socks to gently stretch the material. If discomfort persists, consider visiting a shoe specialist for stretching or trying different insoles.

Address stains immediately. For general dirt, use a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner and follow product instructions carefully. Avoid scrubbing aggressively, as this can damage the leather finish.

Use a shoe cleaning brush or an old toothbrush with a mixture of mild soap and water or a specialized sole cleaner. Scrub gently to remove dirt and grime, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. For stubborn scuffs, a magic eraser can sometimes be effective on rubber.
