FAQs
Are these true to size?
The Slade trainers generally follow standard UK sizing for adult men. If you are between sizes, consider your preference for a snug versus relaxed fit.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No. Suede should never be submerged in water or machine washed, as this will destroy the texture and shape of the leather.
What is the best way to clean white suede?
Use a dry suede brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper stains, use a professional suede cleaner and follow the instructions exactly.
Are they suitable for heavy walking?
They are designed for everyday casual comfort, but for long-distance hiking or intensive athletic activity, a specialized performance trainer is recommended.
How do I keep the white color bright?
Avoid exposure to harsh sunlight for long periods and regularly clean off surface dust to prevent it from settling into the fibers.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on suede surface
Use a specialized suede brush or an eraser block specifically designed for suede to gently lift the stain.
Shoes feel tight across the instep
Suede has natural flexibility and will stretch slightly with wear. If it is significantly painful, consider using a shoe stretcher overnight.
Water spots or dark marks
Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, then brush the nap back up with a suede brush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As these trainers are made of suede, longevity depends on proper maintenance. Upon purchase, it is highly recommended to apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before the first wear. To keep them looking fresh, use a dry suede brush to remove surface dust or dried dirt after each outing. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or muddy conditions, as water can permanently alter the nap of the suede. For storage, keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the white material from yellowing or fading.
