Product Information
Full details
The Dsquared2 Sprinter Trainers are designed for the adult male seeking stylish, everyday footwear with a distinct retro running aesthetic and a vintage, worn-in finish. Their key benefit lies in offering characterful design combined with practical traction from the treaded rubber sole. A potential consideration is that the vintage/worn-in effect is a deliberate design feature and not indicative of product wear.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

How should I clean the vintage effect on the trainers?
The vintage/worn-in effect is a deliberate design feature. Clean the trainers gently with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning methods that could damage the finish.
Can I remove the insole?
Yes, the trainers feature a removable leather insole, allowing for easy cleaning or replacement with custom insoles.
What does the 'Sprinter' series signify?
The 'Sprinter' series typically denotes trainers inspired by classic track and field shoe designs, characterized by lightweight construction and a sporty silhouette.
How do I care for the leather parts?

Troubleshooting
Laces becoming untied frequently
Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot if necessary. Consider replacing laces with a material that offers better grip.
Discomfort after prolonged wear
Ensure the correct size is being worn. The removable insole can be replaced with a more supportive aftermarket insole if needed. Check that the lacing is adjusted appropriately for comfort.
Treaded sole losing grip
Clean the sole of any debris, mud, or grit that may be embedded. If the tread is visibly worn down, the shoes may need replacement.
Leather appearing dry or stiff
Apply a leather conditioner suitable for footwear to rehydrate and soften the leather. Ensure the shoes are not stored in excessively dry conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers require no assembly. Simply lace them up for a secure fit.
Compatibility: Designed for adult male wear.
Care: Given the materials (calfskin leather, polyester, cotton, thermoplastic rubber), spot cleaning with a slightly damp cloth is recommended for the upper. Avoid excessive moisture. For the leather components, consider using a leather cleaner and conditioner specifically designed for footwear. Ensure the trainers are allowed to air dry naturally away from direct heat. The removable insole can be taken out and cleaned separately if needed.
