FAQs

Troubleshooting
Sizing feels slightly off
Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If the issue persists, consider if a half-size up or down might be more suitable, or if the shoe requires a brief break-in period.
Fabric appears discolored or stained
Attempt spot cleaning with a mild soap and water solution. For stubborn stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner specializing in fabric footwear.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces
Wipe the outsole clean of any debris. If the issue is persistent on smooth, wet surfaces, the grip may be reduced; exercise caution.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: The Fred Perry B708 Trainers come ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort.
