FAQs

How do I adjust the laces for the best fit?

Loosen the laces completely, put the shoe on, then pull the laces evenly from the tongue upwards to secure your foot. Tighten until snug but not uncomfortable. Use the side zip for quick on and off once the laces are set.

What is the benefit of the Strobel construction?

Strobel construction involves stitching the upper directly to a lightweight bottoming material. This technique results in a very flexible and lightweight shoe that allows for greater freedom of movement for your foot.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the leather may have some natural resistance, these trainers are not specifically waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and to treat them with a leather protector for added water resistance.

How do I clean the EVA sole?

The EVA sole can typically be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Wipe gently and rinse with a clean damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

What kind of socks are best to wear with these trainers?

For everyday comfort, thin to medium-thickness socks are recommended. If you're breaking them in or need a snugger fit, thin socks can help the leather adjust.

Is the 35mm heel height noticeable?

The 35mm heel provides a slight lift. Most users find it comfortable for daily wear and it adds a touch of style without being overly high.

How durable is the leather upper?

The leather upper is designed for durability with proper care. Regular cleaning and conditioning will help maintain its appearance and extend its lifespan.

Troubleshooting

Zip is stiff or difficult to move

Ensure there are no fabric obstructions. Gently try to move the zip up and down. A small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a specialized zipper lubricant can be applied to the teeth to improve movement.

Shoes feel slightly tight

Wear the shoes with thin socks for a short period to allow the leather to mold to your foot. If the tightness persists, check that the laces are not over-tightened.

Uneven wear on the sole

This could indicate an issue with gait. Examine the tread for unusual wear patterns. Ensure you are walking naturally and not applying uneven pressure.

Leather shows watermarks

Use a specialized leather cleaner designed to remove water stains. After cleaning and drying, apply a leather conditioner or protector.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a clean, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For more stubborn marks, a dedicated leather cleaner can be used sparingly.
  • Drying: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
  • Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against stains and water damage, especially for lighter colors.
  • Laces: Adjust laces for a comfortable fit and ensure the zip is fully engaged. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
