FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, the Josef Seibel Claire 03 Trainers are specifically designed for supportive and lasting comfort, making them ideal for all-day wear and everyday outings, thanks to their internal cushioning and thick sole.

How do I clean the nubuck leather?

Use a specialized nubuck brush to remove loose dirt and dust. For tougher marks, a nubuck eraser can be effective. Always apply a nubuck protector spray to guard against future stains and water damage.

What is the sole material `TPR`?

`TPR` stands for Thermoplastic Rubber. It's a durable and flexible material commonly used for shoe soles, known for its good grip, shock absorption, and resistance to abrasion, making it ideal for comfortable, long-lasting footwear.

Are these trainers true to size?

The Josef Seibel Claire 03 Trainers are described as having a 'Wide' shoe width. For length, most users find them true to their usual UK shoe size, but the wider fit provides extra room. If you are between sizes, consider trying your usual size first.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the nubuck leather offers some natural resistance, it's not fully waterproof. It's highly recommended to apply a nubuck protector spray to enhance water resistance. Avoid heavy rain or prolonged exposure to moisture to preserve the leather's quality.

What is the benefit of the side zip?

The side zip offers convenience, allowing you to easily slip the trainers on and off without needing to untie and retie the laces each time. The laces then allow for a customizable, secure fit that you can set once and largely forget.

Troubleshooting

Nubuck leather appears dull or stained.

Gently brush the affected area with a nubuck brush to restore the nap. For stains, use a nubuck eraser or a specialized nubuck cleaner applied sparingly with a clean cloth. Always reapply a protector spray after cleaning.

The trainers feel too snug, despite being a wide fit.

Ensure the laces are loosened sufficiently. Wear them around the house for short periods to allow the leather to gently mold to your foot shape. If discomfort persists, consider wearing thinner socks.

The side zip feels stiff or catches.

Apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a specialized zip lubricant to the teeth of the zipper. Work the zip up and down gently several times to distribute the lubricant. Ensure the surrounding leather or fabric is not interfering with the zipper.

Squeaking sound when walking.

This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the sole. Try removing the insole and dusting a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch underneath it. Ensure the laces are securely tied, as loose laces can also cause movement and noise.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Getting started with your Josef Seibel Claire 03 Trainers is straightforward:

  1. Unpack: Remove the trainers from their packaging.

  3. Utilize Side Zip: Once the laces are set to your preference, you can primarily use the side zip for easy on and off without re-tying laces each time.

Compatibility

These trainers are designed for casual and smart-casual wardrobes. They pair well with:

  • Jeans, chinos, and casual trousers
  • Skirts and casual dresses
  • Shorts (for a relaxed summer look)

Their versatile design makes them a great match for daily commutes, weekend outings, and social gatherings where comfort is key.

Care Instructions

To ensure your nubuck leather trainers remain in excellent condition and extend their lifespan:

  1. Initial Protection: Before first wear, apply a high-quality nubuck and suede protector spray to guard against water and stains.
  2. Regular Cleaning: Use a nubuck brush to gently remove dirt and dust. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the leather.
  3. Spot Cleaning: For tougher spots, use a specialized nubuck eraser or a slightly damp cloth with a small amount of mild leather cleaner designed for nubuck. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
  4. Drying: If wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources or sunlight. Stuff with paper to help maintain their shape.
  5. Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to preserve their shape.
  6. Avoid: Do not machine wash or submerge in water. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners.
