Full details
The Philipp Plein Godzilla Runner Hexagon trainers are designed for adults seeking a stylish and comfortable everyday footwear option. Their primary benefit is the combination of a sleek, low-top design with excellent cushioning, featuring an iconic hexagon logo. A key consideration is that this model runs large, so sizing down is recommended for an optimal fit.

FAQs
Do these trainers come in other colors?
The provided information specifies a white colour variant. Please refer to product listings for other available colour options or sibling products.
What material is the main body of the shoe made from?
The upper is made from 100% split cowhide leather, which is also polyurethane coated.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, these trainers should not be put in the washing machine. Cleaning should be done manually using the care instructions provided, focusing on spot cleaning and gentle wiping.
How do I know if I should size down?
The product description explicitly states that this model runs large. If you typically wear a half size or are between sizes, it is strongly recommended to consider sizing down. If you are unsure, measuring your foot and comparing it to a size chart, or trying them on if possible, is advisable.
What is the benefit of the hexagon logo?
The metal PP Hexagon logo is an iconic detail that serves as a signature branding element, adding a distinctive and premium aesthetic to the trainers.
Are these suitable for running or athletic training?
While they have a 'runner' style name and cushioning, they are primarily designed for versatile everyday wear and casual comfort. They are not intended for high-impact athletic training or competitive running.
What is the difference between the insole and midsole cushioning?
The insole is the removable layer that sits directly under your foot, made here of goatskin for comfort. The midsole is the layer between the insole and the outsole, responsible for shock absorption and providing the primary cushioning. This model features a 'highly cushioning' midsole.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too large
The product description notes that this model runs large. Consider purchasing a half or full size down from your usual size. You can also try using thicker socks or adding an aftermarket insole for a snugger fit.
Leather appears scuffed or marked
For minor scuffs on the split cowhide leather, try using a leather cleaner designed for coated leather or a slightly damp cloth. Buff gently with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper marks, professional leather care might be necessary.
Laces wear out or break
Replace laces with a similar length and style from a shoe repair shop or online retailer. Ensure the new laces are suitable for trainer eyelets.
Soles feel slippery
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. If the slipperiness persists, especially on smooth surfaces, consider using an anti-slip spray or treatment designed for shoe soles, following the product's instructions carefully.

Care:
- Upper (100% Split Cowhide Leather - Polyurethane Coated): Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth. For minor scuffs, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but avoid soaking the leather. Specialized leather cleaners suitable for coated leather may be used sparingly. Allow to air dry away from direct heat.
- Lining (Goatskin & Polyester): The interior can be wiped with a damp cloth if necessary. Ensure it dries thoroughly before wearing.
- Insole (100% Goatskin): This is removable and can be aired out separately. Spot clean with a damp cloth if soiled.
- Outsole (100% Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate): Wipe clean with a damp cloth. Stubborn dirt can be removed with a soft brush and mild soap, then rinse with a clean damp cloth.
- General Care: Avoid exposing the trainers to excessive moisture or extreme temperatures. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Use a shoe tree to help maintain shape.
