FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear rather than high-performance running.
What does the ABZORB technology do?
ABZORB is a proprietary foam blend that provides exceptional cushioning and compression set properties to absorb impact.
How should I clean the wool upper?
Spot clean only using a soft brush or a clean cloth dampened with water and mild soap.
Is this a unisex model?
Yes, this specific model is designed as a unisex trainer suitable for a wide range of adult foot shapes.
Can I remove the insoles?
Yes, the internal footbeds are generally removable to accommodate custom orthotics if needed.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight across the midfoot
Adjust the lace tension by loosening the laces starting from the bottom eyelets toward the top.
Visible surface stains on the wool upper
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dry dirt. For liquid stains, blot immediately with a damp cloth; do not rub, as this can push debris into the fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Wear the shoes for short intervals indoors to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape.
- Care: Because these feature wool components, avoid machine washing. Instead, spot clean with a soft brush and mild detergent when dry. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent the material from warping.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the white color.
- Compatibility: The neutral silhouette pairs well with both casual denim and athletic trousers.
