FAQs

Are the Balskee trainers true to size?

The Balskee trainers typically follow standard EU sizing conventions. It is recommended to select your usual size, though the adjustable Velcro straps offer some room for minor width variations.

Can I wear these trainers in the rain?

Suede is sensitive to moisture. It is best to avoid heavy rain. If they do get wet, let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.

How do I clean the rubber outsole?

The rubber outsole can be wiped clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid getting water on the suede sections of the upper.

Can I replace the insoles?

While the shoes are designed for optimal comfort out of the box, if you require custom orthotics, the interior space may accommodate thin inserts depending on the thickness of your specific orthotic.

What is the primary material used?

The main upper material is high-quality suede, complemented by a rubber outsole.

Troubleshooting

The suede is showing minor water spots.

Allow the sneakers to air dry completely, then use a suede brush to gently lift the fibers back into place.

The Velcro straps are not sticking securely.

Check the Velcro hooks for lint or debris; use a small brush or tweezers to carefully remove any trapped material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Balskee trainers maintain their appearance, follow these care steps:

  1. Initial Protection: Treat the suede with a professional-grade suede protector spray before first use to create a barrier against dust and liquids.
  2. Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt gently. Avoid using water or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the suede pile.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
  4. Fit Adjustment: Utilize the inner Velcro strap to dial in your preferred snugness. If the shoe feels tight, ensure the inner strap is fully extended before adjusting the top closure.
