FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, this model follows standard UK adult sizing. If you typically wear a size 5.5 in adidas footwear, this pair should fit correctly.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, washing leather shoes in a machine will damage the material. Always clean by hand using appropriate leather care products.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

These are designed as lifestyle/fashion trainers, not performance running shoes. They are comfortable for walking but lack the support needed for jogging or high-impact activities.

Does the leather require conditioning?

Applying a leather conditioner every few months will help keep the leather supple and prevent it from cracking over time.

How do I deal with wet conditions?

While the leather is durable, it is not waterproof. If they become soaked, air dry them naturally at room temperature. Never use a heat source like a radiator, as this can crack the leather.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the leather upper

Creasing is a natural characteristic of genuine leather. You can minimize the appearance by using shoe trees when not wearing the trainers.

Difficulty keeping the shoes clean

Wipe down the leather with a slightly damp cloth after each use to prevent dirt buildup and use a dedicated leather conditioner periodically.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • EVA midsole offers excellent all-day comfort

Cons

  • Leather requires specific cleaning products
  • Not intended for high-intensity athletic performance
  • Light-coloured soles may show dirt more easily

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers maintain their condition, follow these guidelines:

  • Break-in Period: Leather uppers may feel stiff initially; wearing them for short intervals initially will help the leather conform to your foot shape.
  • Cleaning: Use a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt from the leather. For deeper cleaning, apply a leather-specific cleaner using a soft cloth, avoiding harsh chemicals.
  • Protection: Apply a leather protector spray to guard against minor moisture and staining. Always test the product on a small, inconspicuous area first.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather drying or discolouration. Use shoe trees to help maintain the structure of the trainer when not in use.
