Troubleshooting

Leather showing minor surface scuffs

Use a leather cleaner specifically formulated for colored leather and buff lightly with a soft microfiber cloth.

Laces becoming untied frequently

Double-knot the laces or swap for cotton laces with better friction properties.

Creasing in the toe box

Use a shoe tree when the sneakers are not being worn to help the material maintain its shape.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Authentic retro aesthetic
  • High-quality durable leather material
  • Versatile design for daily wear
  • Comfortable fit for extended use

Cons

  • Leather requires regular cleaning to maintain color
  • Limited to casual use rather than high-performance sports

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these trainers come fully assembled, setup simply involves ensuring the laces are adjusted to your preferred tension for a secure lockdown. For compatibility, the size 12.5 fit is designed for standard adult foot dimensions. To care for your shoes, wipe them down with a soft, damp cloth after use to remove surface dust. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the leather. If the leather begins to dry, use a leather conditioner to prevent cracking and maintain the saturation of the red pigment.
