FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Nike Waffle Debut generally fits true to size for most adults, though personal preference for fit may vary.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather material and the structural integrity of the shoe; manual cleaning is recommended.
Are these suitable for intense sports?
These trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual use rather than high-impact athletic performance.
How do I remove salt stains?
Use a mixture of equal parts water and white vinegar on a soft cloth to gently wipe the area, then dry immediately.
Is the leather material breathable?
While leather provides durability and structure, it is naturally less breathable than mesh-heavy trainers.
Does the color fade over time?
To prevent fading, avoid leaving the trainers in direct sunlight for extended periods when they are not in use.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather toe box
Natural leather creasing is common; use a shoe tree when not wearing to maintain the shoe's shape and minimize deep lines.
Scuff marks on the cream upper
Use a specialized leather eraser or a gentle leather cleaner to buff out surface-level scuffs without damaging the finish.
Sole losing traction over time
Regularly remove pebbles and debris trapped in the waffle tread grooves using a soft brush to maintain consistent grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Initial Protection: Apply a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray before first use.
- Routine Cleaning: Wipe down the leather surfaces with a soft, slightly damp cloth after each use to remove surface dust.
- Deep Cleaning: For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft-bristled brush, then wipe dry.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent color fading of the cream leather.
