FAQs
What material is the Autry Medalist trainer made from?
The upper is made from 100% cow leather. The lining is a mix of 40% pigskin, 50% towel (cotton terry), and 10% nylon. The outsole is 100% rubber.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Gently wipe the leather with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a dedicated mild leather cleaner. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally and avoid direct heat.
What is the sole height of these trainers?
The height of the sole ranges from approximately 2.5 cm to 3.5 cm.
Are these trainers suitable for athletic activities?
These trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear, inspired by retro tennis styles. They are not engineered for high-impact sports or athletic performance.
Do the trainers come with a dust bag?
Yes, the Autry Medalist trainers come with a fabric dust bag for convenient storage and protection.
What does the 'Medalist' series signify?
The 'Medalist' series refers to Autry's line of trainers inspired by classic 1980s sports footwear, particularly tennis shoes, characterized by their retro design and quality materials.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather can be treated for some water resistance, these trainers are not waterproof. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable
New leather shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase the duration. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase.
Leather creasing excessively
Some creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, ensure the shoes fit correctly. Avoid over-tightening laces and always store them with shoe trees or stuffed to maintain their shape.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
The rubber sole may be slick on highly polished or wet surfaces. Ensure the soles are clean. For added grip on specific surfaces, consider a professional sole treatment.
Discoloration on the leather
Exposure to excessive sunlight or certain chemicals can cause discoloration. Store shoes properly and use appropriate leather care products. Avoid direct contact with staining materials.
