The trainers feature a mixed-material upper, combining leather, suede, and nubuck. The outsole is made of rubber with a distinctive knit-inspired texture.

How should I clean the suede and nubuck parts?

For suede and nubuck, use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dirt and restore the texture. Avoid using water and consider a suede protector spray for maintenance.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too large

Due to the 'runs large' sizing, consider purchasing a half or full size down from your usual size. If already purchased, consider using thicker insoles or socks.

Suede or nubuck appears dirty or matted

Gently brush the material with a dedicated suede brush to lift the nap and remove superficial dirt. For tougher stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner.

Leather creasing excessively

Creasing is natural with wear. To minimize, avoid over-tightening laces and use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape.

Outsole texture accumulating dirt

Use a soft brush or damp cloth to carefully clean the knit-inspired texture of the outsole. Ensure the shoes are dry before storing.
