FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the integrity of the adhesive bonding. Hand cleaning is recommended.
Can I use these for long-distance running?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and light activity, not as performance running gear for long distances.
Does the leather stretch over time?
Leather typically has a small amount of 'give' and will mold slightly to the shape of your foot with consistent wear.
Is the sole non-slip?
The rubber outsole provides reliable traction on standard indoor and dry outdoor surfaces, though caution should be used on extremely slick or icy ground.
Are these trainers true to size?
Yes, they follow standard adidas adult sizing conventions. If you typically wear a UK size 9 in adidas, this pair should fit as expected.
What is the primary material used?
The exterior upper is constructed from durable leather, complemented by a rubber outsole and an EVA cushioned midsole.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel loose or slip during the day
Consider using a 'double knot' or a runner's loop to increase friction and prevent the laces from untying.
Leather looks dull or loses its shine
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner designed for footwear to restore the natural oils and finish.
Accumulation of dirt on the outsole
Use a soft-bristled brush or an old toothbrush with mild soapy water to scrub the rubber outsole, then wipe clean.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
- Drying: Always air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp or crack the leather.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup inside the shoe.
- Leather Protection: Using a leather-appropriate protective spray can help repel dirt and minor stains over time.
