FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

These trainers are designed primarily for everyday casual wear and offer good comfort and traction for walking. They are not specifically engineered for high-impact sports or athletic performance.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from supple 'Cloud White' leather, with a suede detailing on the T-toe.

How do I ensure a secure fit?

The trainers feature a traditional lace closure, which allows you to adjust the tightness for a secure and personalized fit.

What is the inspiration behind the design?

The design is inspired by classic military trainers, offering a timeless and minimalist aesthetic.

How do I clean the gum outsole?

The gum outsole can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Gently wipe away dirt and grime to maintain its appearance and grip.

What is the 'Cloud White' color?

'Cloud White' refers to the primary color of the leather upper, which is a clean, off-white shade.

What does 'Decon' mean in the product name?

'Decon' typically refers to a deconstructed version of a shoe, often implying a more minimalist design or construction. In this case, it highlights the sleek, pared-back aesthetic of the BW Army silhouette.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dull or dirty

Wipe down with a soft, dry cloth. Use a mild leather cleaner and a damp cloth for tougher spots, followed by a dry cloth. For suede areas, use a suede brush.

Reduced grip on the outsole

Clean the gum outsole with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dirt or debris that might be affecting traction.

Shoes feel stiff after getting wet

Allow the shoes to air dry completely at room temperature away from direct heat. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult unisex wear. They pair well with a wide range of casual and smart-casual clothing.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Leather Upper: Regularly wipe the leather with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. For deeper cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner. Avoid excessive water.
  • Suede Care: Use a dedicated suede brush to clean the suede T-toe and remove dry dirt. For stains, consider a specialized suede cleaner.
  • Outsole Maintenance: Wipe the gum outsole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and maintain its grip.
  • Drying: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather and alter the shoe's shape.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and moisture.
