FAQs
Are these shoes water-resistant?
While the Vibram sole offers great traction, the suede upper is not fully waterproof. We recommend applying a protective suede spray.
How do I clean the white stitching?
Use a soft toothbrush with a mild soap solution, being careful not to rub the soapy water into the surrounding suede.
Can the insoles be removed?
The shoes feature internal Sola Foam cushioning; removing the insole may affect the intended comfort profile of the footwear.
What sizing system is used?
These trainers use standard UK adult sizing.
Are they suitable for running or sports?
These are designed as lifestyle trainers for casual use and are not intended for high-impact sports or long-distance running.
Troubleshooting
Surface dirt on the suede
Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift dirt in the direction of the nap.
Difficulty achieving a snug fit
Ensure the mid-padded collar is not being obstructed by thick socks; try relacing the shoes to distribute tension evenly.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers feature a standard lace-up fastening system, allowing for a personalized fit. To ensure the longevity of the suede upper, avoid exposing the shoes to excessive moisture or mud.
Care Instructions:
- Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust regularly.
- Utilize a dedicated suede eraser for spot cleaning light stains.
- Keep the shoes away from direct heat sources when drying, as this can cause the suede to harden or lose its shape.
- Apply a water-repellent spray specifically designed for suede to add a protective layer against light spills.
