FAQs

What type of leather is used for the upper?

The upper is made from 100% cowhide split leather, which is coated with polyurethane for added durability and a smooth finish.

Are these sneakers suitable for athletic activities?

While they feature performance-oriented construction like a shock-absorbing midsole and non-slip outsole, they are primarily designed as stylish everyday wear rather than specialized athletic shoes.

Can the insole be replaced?

Yes, the insole is removable, allowing you to replace it with your own custom orthotics or a different type of insole if desired.

How should I clean the black leather exterior?

Use a soft, dry cloth for regular cleaning. For tougher spots, a slightly damp cloth can be used. Always refer to the specific care label instructions provided with the product.

What does 'low-top silhouette' mean?

A low-top silhouette refers to a shoe design where the ankle collar cuts below the ankle bone, offering more freedom of movement and a sleeker appearance compared to high-top shoes.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The shoes are not explicitly described as waterproof. The leather is coated, which can offer some resistance to light moisture, but they are not designed for prolonged exposure to wet conditions.

What is the sole made of?

The outsole is made of 100% ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) rubber, providing grip and shock absorption.

Troubleshooting

Laces becoming untied frequently

Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot. Consider replacing laces if they are worn or slippery.

Discomfort after prolonged wear

Adjust the lace tightness, or try using the removable insole with your preferred orthotics for added support.

Scuffs or marks on the leather

Gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn marks, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for coated leather, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Slight odor inside the shoe

Remove the insoles and allow both the insoles and shoes to air out completely in a well-ventilated area. Using shoe deodorizers or baking soda can also help.

Care:
