FAQs

What type of leather are these sneakers made from?

The Dolce & Gabbana Bos Taurus Athletic Sneakers are made from 100% Calf Leather (Bos Taurus).

Are these sneakers suitable for athletic performance?

These sneakers are designed primarily for comfort and style in a lifestyle context. While they offer good support and durability for everyday wear, they are not intended for high-impact athletic activities.

How do I clean the leather parts of the sneakers?

Gently wipe the leather with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner, testing on a small area first.

What makes the DG Cushion base unique?

The DG Cushion base is an innovative design element that provides a unique foundation for the sneaker, contributing to its overall comfort and modern aesthetic.

What is the sole made of?

The sole is constructed from a combination of micro and TPU materials, offering a balance of lightness and durability.

How can I ensure the best fit?

Refer to the sizing chart and consider trying them on if possible. Note that leather may stretch slightly with wear. Available UK sizes include 6, 6.5, 7.5, 8, 9, 9.5, 10, and 12.

What is the benefit of the thermoformed foam footbed?

The thermoformed foam footbed, covered in leather, is designed to provide exceptional comfort and support, molding to the shape of your foot for a personalized feel.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight initially.

Leather will naturally stretch and mold to your foot over time. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in. Consider using a shoe stretcher if the tightness persists.

Squeaking sound when walking.

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and the sole. Try inserting a thin powder-free insert or talcum powder under the insole if it's removable. Ensure the laces are not overtightened.

Leather appears dry or dull.

Apply a small amount of high-quality leather conditioner or cream specifically designed for calf leather. Buff gently with a soft cloth to restore shine.

Dirt or stains on the leather.

For fresh stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For more ingrained dirt, use a leather cleaner following the product's instructions, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Care: To maintain the premium quality of your Dolce & Gabbana Bos Taurus Athletic Sneakers:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the leather.
  2. Suede/Nubuck: If applicable to specific parts, use a specialized suede brush or eraser.
  3. Soles: Clean the soles with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly.
  4. Insoles: The leather-covered insole can be wiped with a slightly damp cloth. Ensure they dry naturally away from direct heat.
  5. Storage: Store the sneakers in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a dust bag, to protect them from dust and moisture. Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
  6. Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray suitable for calf leather to guard against water and stains.
