Product Information
Full details
The CAT Grapple trainers are designed for adult men who need a reliable, stylish shoe for urban environments and daily wear. These trainers excel by balancing a rugged aesthetic with comfort-focused features like soft EVA foam footbeds and odor-control lining. While they offer excellent traction and durability, they are constructed from suede, which requires careful maintenance to preserve the material's appearance in wet or muddy conditions.

FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the CAT Grapple uses suede material which is not waterproof. It is recommended to use a suede-safe protective spray to improve water resistance.
How does the CLEANSPORT NXT technology work?
It uses beneficial microbes embedded in the lining to break down sweat and organic matter, effectively preventing odor at the source.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can severely damage the suede and the bonding agents in the shoe. Clean by hand only.
Are these suitable for hiking?
While they provide good traction for urban exploration, they are designed as casual trainers and lack the ankle support and rugged protection of specialized hiking boots.
What does the T1555 rubber outsole offer?
The T1555 is a specific rubber compound designed for durability and improved grip, helping prevent slipping on smooth urban surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on suede upper
Use a specialized dry suede brush to gently lift dirt particles in the direction of the nap.
Water spots on suede
Allow the shoe to dry naturally away from heat sources, then brush with a suede brush to restore the texture.
Footbed feels less supportive over time
If the footbed loses its cushioning, consider replacing it with an aftermarket orthotic insole for continued comfort.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers are made from suede, proper care is essential. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or deep mud, as excessive moisture can damage the texture and color of the material. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt and a specialized suede eraser for minor marks. For deeper stains, utilize a dedicated suede cleaner. Ensure the shoes are stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. Given their neutral brown tone, they pair easily with denim, chinos, or casual workwear.
