FAQs
What does 'OG' stand for in the product name?
'OG' typically stands for 'Original' or 'Original Gangster', indicating that these shoes are based on or are a reissue of an original design.
Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?
These are designed as lifestyle trainers with a vintage aesthetic. While they offer comfort for walking, they are not intended for high-impact sports or professional athletic training.
How do I clean the vintage-treated outsole?
Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or scrubbing, as this could damage the specific vintage finish.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is primarily made of premium suede, with leather elements for the 3-Stripes and branding.
How do the silver reflective stripes work?
The stripes contain reflective material that bounces light back towards the source, making them more visible in low-light conditions when illuminated.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in wet conditions as it can damage the material. Using a suede protector spray can offer some resistance, but waterproof protection is limited.
What is the difference between the 'Made In USA' and other versions?
The 'Made In USA' designation typically refers to the origin of manufacturing and can sometimes imply a higher standard of craftsmanship or specific materials used in that production.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears scuffed or dirty.
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner following product instructions and test in a small area first.
Laces are worn or dirty.
Replace laces with new ones of a similar length and style. Clean existing laces by hand washing with mild soap and water.
Shoes feel stiff on first wear.
This is common with leather and suede. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Wearing thicker socks can also help stretch them slightly.
Reflective stripes are losing their effect.
Ensure the stripes are clean. Gently wipe them with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive rubbing, which can damage the reflective coating.
