FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for professional sports?

The 'Elite Protro' designation suggests a focus on performance, making them suitable for many athletic pursuits. However, specific sport requirements may vary.

How do I determine the correct size?

The listing specifies UK size 7.5. It is recommended to consult Nike's official size chart for men's trainers to ensure the best fit, considering foot length and width.

Can the leather be waterproofed?

While specific waterproofing sprays for leather can be used, always test on an inconspicuous area first and follow the product's instructions carefully to avoid damaging the material or finish.

What is the difference between 'Elite' and standard models?

Elite models typically feature upgraded materials, enhanced cushioning technologies, and improved performance-oriented designs compared to standard versions.

How should I store these trainers long-term?

For long-term storage, clean them thoroughly, ensure they are dry, and store them in a cool, dry place with shoe trees to maintain their shape.

Is the gold detailing real gold?

The gold accents are typically a metallic finish or coating for aesthetic purposes and not made of actual gold.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise during movement

This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, or check if the laces are too tight.

Leather creasing excessively

Natural creasing will occur with wear. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use.

Discoloration on gold accents

Gently wipe the gold accents with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid polishing or using cleaning agents directly on these areas.
