FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
These trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and streetwear. While they offer good grip, they are not engineered for intense athletic performance or specific sports.
How do I clean the shell toe?
The rubber shell toe can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Wipe it clean and allow it to air dry. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the rubber.
What is the difference between Superstar ST and regular Superstar?
The Superstar ST typically features design updates such as chunkier laces, additional padding, and sometimes different materials or outsole variations, offering a bolder take on the original Superstar silhouette.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
Due to the suede material, it is not recommended to wear these trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions, as suede can be easily damaged and stained by water. A suede protector can offer some resistance, but they are not waterproof.
What is the material of the 3-Stripes?
The 3-Stripes on this specific model are made of tonal leather, complementing the suede upper and providing a subtle brand accent.
How should I store these trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees or stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained
Allow the area to dry completely. Use a suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner, following product instructions carefully. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct size. You can try wearing them with thicker socks around the house to help them stretch slightly. If the discomfort persists, consider if a different size or model would be more suitable.
Traction feels reduced
Clean the gum rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris that may be hindering grip. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before wearing.
Laces are difficult to keep tied
Ensure the laces are tied securely with a double knot if necessary. Replace laces if they are worn or slippery.
