FAQs
Are these sneakers suitable for running or sports?
The Autry Medalist Low Sneakers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. They offer comfort for walking and daily activities but are not intended for high-impact sports or running due to their construction and materials.
How do I determine the correct UK size?
It is recommended to consult the brand's specific size chart or a shoe size conversion chart that cross-references UK sizes with European or US sizing. Trying them on in person, if possible, is the most accurate method.
Can I wash these sneakers in a washing machine?
No, these sneakers should not be machine washed. The combination of leather, suede, and other materials requires specialized hand-cleaning methods to avoid damage.
What is the primary material used in these sneakers?
The primary material is calf leather, making up 70% of the shoe's upper. It also incorporates 20% suede and 10% nylon.
How high is the sole of the sneaker?
The rubber sole has a height ranging from 2.5 cm to 3.5 cm.
What does the 'Medalist' series signify?
The 'Medalist' series refers to Autry's line of sneakers that revive their iconic 1980s designs, characterized by vintage aesthetics and the signature American flag logo.
Are there other color options available?
Yes, the Autry Medalist line is available in various colorways and material combinations. Please refer to the product catalog or retailer for specific available options.
Troubleshooting
Suede losing its texture or looking flat
Use a suede brush to gently lift and restore the nap of the material. Brush in multiple directions to revive the texture.
Leather scuffs or minor marks
For light scuffs, try buffing gently with a soft cloth. For more noticeable marks, use a leather conditioner or a cream polish matching the shoe's colour.
Discoloration from water exposure
If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Once dry, use appropriate cleaners for leather and suede to address any water stains.
Odors developing inside the shoe
Ensure the shoes are aired out after each use. Use shoe trees to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Baking soda or specialized shoe deodorizers can be used inside the shoes when not in wear.
Laces becoming frayed
Replace frayed laces with new ones of similar length and material. Flat cotton laces are recommended to match the original style.
