FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the R71 is an archival lifestyle trainer intended for casual, everyday wear rather than athletic performance.
How do I clean the mesh portion?
Use a mixture of mild soap and lukewarm water with a soft cloth to gently blot the mesh surface.
Do these shoes run true to size?
The R71 typically fits according to standard UK sizing; however, it is recommended to reference the size guide if you have particularly wide feet.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended. The suede components can be damaged by water and may become stained or discolored if exposed to heavy rain.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is a hybrid construction featuring breathable mesh for ventilation and suede overlays for durability and style.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on suede overlays
Use a dry, soft-bristled suede brush to gently stroke the nap of the material and lift away loose dust.
Water spots on the material
Lightly dampen the entire surface of the suede with a clean cloth and let it dry naturally to even out the appearance.
Odors after frequent wear
Remove the insoles to air out and use a fabric-safe deodorizing spray inside the shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your R71 trainers last, it is recommended to apply a protective water-repellent spray specifically designed for suede before the first wear. Since the material contains natural suede, avoid machine washing; instead, spot clean with a soft-bristled brush or a specialized suede eraser to lift dirt. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the material to warp or fade.
