FAQs
What material are the Upland Suede Trainers made of?
The uppers are made of 50% other materials and 50% suede. The lining and cushioning are 100% textile, and the sole is 100% rubber.
How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?
For general cleaning, use a suede brush to remove dirt and maintain the texture. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner, following the product's instructions. Avoid soaking the suede in water.
Are these trainers suitable for sports activities?
These trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and everyday comfort. While the rubber sole provides good traction, they are not intended for high-impact sports or athletic training.
What is the heel type on these trainers?
These trainers feature a flat heel design for a comfortable and stable feel during casual wear.
What is the fastening type?
They feature a traditional lace-up fastening, allowing for an adjustable and secure fit.
What age group are these trainers intended for?
These trainers are designed for adults.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
While the rubber sole offers some protection, suede is not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing these trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage to the suede material.
Troubleshooting
Suede material looks dull or dirty.
Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully.
Laces are difficult to keep tied.
Ensure the laces are properly secured with a double knot. Consider replacing the laces with a material that offers better grip if this persists.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
Ensure the rubber soles are clean and free from debris. For very smooth surfaces, the grip may naturally be less pronounced than on textured ground.
Fit feels slightly tight.
Suede can stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them around the house with thicker socks to help them conform to your foot. Ensure you have the correct size; refer to sizing charts if unsure.
