FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While designed for natural movement, these trainers are best suited for walking and casual wear. They lack the specialized cushioning and support typically found in dedicated running shoes.

How do I know if the 'barefoot feeling' is right for me?

If you prefer shoes that allow your foot to move naturally without excessive restriction or cushioning, you will likely enjoy the barefoot feel. It's recommended to try them on and walk around to gauge your comfort, especially if you are new to this style.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

Suede is not inherently waterproof. While the rubber outsole offers some protection, prolonged exposure to rain or wet conditions is not recommended and may damage the suede material. Consider using a suede protector spray for added water resistance.

How often should I clean the suede?

Regular brushing after wear helps maintain the suede's appearance. Deep cleaning should be done as needed when visible dirt or stains appear.

What is the purpose of the Podoactiva Certified footbeds?

These footbeds are designed in collaboration with Podoactiva, a podiatry company, to offer certified comfort and support, enhancing the natural feel and alignment of the foot.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the suede, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe.

What is the main difference between the 'Peu Path+' and other CAMPER trainers?

The 'Peu Path+' series is specifically engineered to enhance the barefoot feeling, offering more flexibility and a closer connection to the ground compared to trainers with more traditional construction and cushioning.

Troubleshooting

Slight stiffness upon first wear.

This is normal for suede and the minimalist design. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape.

Footbeds feel loose after cleaning.

Ensure the footbeds are completely dry before reinserting them. Any residual moisture can affect their fit.

Suede appears dull or has marks.

Use a suede brush to gently remove surface dirt and restore the texture. For stubborn marks, consult a specialist suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully.

Feet feel unsupported during long walks.

Consider using the removable Podoactiva Certified footbeds, or replace them with your preferred aftermarket insoles that offer more cushioning or arch support.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult males seeking a natural foot movement experience. They pair well with casual attire, including jeans, chinos, and shorts.

Care:

  1. Cleaning Suede: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner can be applied sparingly, followed by brushing to restore the nap.
  2. Footbeds: The removable PU footbeds can be hand-washed with mild soap and water and air-dried completely before reinsertion.
  3. Outsoles: Wipe the rubber outsoles with a damp cloth to remove dirt.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag, to protect the suede.
