FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for basketball?

While inspired by 1985 court styles, these are lifestyle trainers and are not intended for competitive high-intensity basketball performance.

How do I find my correct size?

The Centennial 85 High generally fits true to size. If you prefer wearing thicker socks, consider opting for a half-size larger than your standard measurement.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing can damage the materials and the adhesive used in the construction. Hand cleaning is recommended.

What is the primary material used?

The trainers use a combination of durable synthetic and leather-like materials designed for long-lasting daily wear.

Does the high-top offer enough ankle protection?

The high-top collar provides excellent structural support and stability for everyday walking and casual use.

Troubleshooting

Stiff fit upon first wear

High-top leather and synthetic blends require a break-in period; wear them for shorter durations indoors before taking them on long outdoor trips.

Difficulty putting the shoe on

Loosen the top three eyelets completely to widen the collar, allowing your foot to slide in easily before tightening.

Creasing at the toe box

This is normal for high-top trainers; using a shoe tree when not in use can help maintain the shape of the toe box.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Classic retro-inspired design
  • Provides added ankle support
  • Durable build quality
  • Versatile grey and green aesthetic

Cons

  • High-top design may feel restrictive to some
  • Requires break-in time for optimal comfort
  • Limited to casual rather than high-intensity sport use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Centennial 85 High trainers maintain their appearance, follow these simple guidelines:

  1. Fit Check: Ensure you choose the correct UK size, as the high-top structure offers less 'give' than mesh alternatives.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the upper. For deeper cleaning, dampen a cloth with a mild soap solution and gently wipe the exterior; avoid submerging in water.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the colours from fading.
  4. Lacing: Adjust the laces to your preferred tension, but avoid overtightening the top eyelets if you require more flexibility for driving or long periods of sitting.
