FAQs
How do I know if I have the correct size?
Always refer to the UK size indicated on the product or packaging. The trainers have a regular fit, so ensure they are not too tight or too loose. Trying them on is the best way to confirm fit.
Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They are not specifically engineered for high-impact sports or running, which require specialized footwear.
How do I clean the Cloudfoam insole?
The textile insole can be removed and hand-washed with mild soap and water. Allow it to air dry completely before reinserting it into the shoe.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, cushioning, and structure of the trainers.
What is the material of the upper?
The upper is constructed from a combination of leather and synthetic materials.
How do I maintain the leather elements?
Wipe with a damp cloth for general cleaning. For best results and to prolong the life of the leather, consider using a dedicated leather conditioner periodically.
Will these trainers be too warm in hot weather?
While they offer comfort, the leather and synthetic upper provides moderate breathability. For very hot conditions or prolonged activity in high temperatures, lighter, more ventilated footwear might be preferable.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not overtightened. If the issue persists, consider if the regular fit is suitable for your foot width. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size.
Discomfort after prolonged wear
Check that the laces are tied correctly for optimal support. Ensure the insoles are properly seated. If discomfort continues, the shoe may not be providing the specific support needed for your activity.
Outer material showing wear
Clean regularly with a damp cloth. For leather, consider using a suitable leather conditioner to maintain suppleness and prevent cracking. Avoid exposing the shoes to excessive moisture or harsh conditions.
