FAQs
What material are these trainers made of?
The upper is made of suede, and the sole is made of synthetic material and gum rubber.
Are these suitable for sports activities?
These trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle. While they offer good traction for walking, they are not intended for high-impact sports.
How should I clean the suede upper?
For general cleaning, use a soft brush. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions. Avoid machine washing or heavy saturation.
What is the difference between Superstar and Superstar ST?
The 'ST' designation often indicates specific design variations, such as the chunky laces and suede upper found on this model, differentiating it from other Superstar versions like the Superstar II.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the gum rubber sole offers some grip, suede is not ideal for very wet conditions. It is recommended to avoid wearing them in heavy rain to protect the suede material.
What is the fit like?
These trainers generally follow standard women's sizing. It is recommended to consult a size chart or try them on if possible, as fit can vary slightly between individuals.
Does the gold branding fade?
The gold branding is typically applied with durable finishes. Normal wear and tear may occur, but significant fading is unlikely with proper care.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained
Use a suede eraser for dry marks. For wet stains, blot gently with a clean cloth and allow to air dry. Consider a specialized suede cleaner for tougher stains, following product instructions carefully.
Laces are difficult to tie securely
Ensure the laces are threaded evenly through the eyelets. If the laces are worn, consider replacing them. Adjust lacing tension to your preference for a snug fit.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces
The gum rubber outsole provides good traction, but performance can vary on extremely wet or polished surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean of debris for optimal grip.
Discomfort around the ankle
Ensure the shoes are laced correctly and not too tight. The padded collar is designed for comfort, but allow a short break-in period if the shoes feel stiff initially.
