FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The leather construction offers moderate resistance, but they are not fully waterproof or submersible.

Can I use these for marathon running?

No, these are designed for walking and casual outdoor use, not the high-impact demands of distance running.

How do I determine my size?

These trainers follow standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to choose your usual shoe size.

What is the primary material used?

The upper is constructed primarily from leather for durability and style.

Is the outsole suitable for hiking?

Yes, it features ASICSGRIP technology which provides reliable traction for light hiking and walking on uneven terrain.

Troubleshooting

The leather upper feels stiff

Apply a leather conditioner to soften the material and wear the shoes for short periods to break them in naturally.

Outsole loses traction

Clean debris or small stones wedged in the tread pattern using a soft brush.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-grip rubber outsole suitable for various terrains

Cons

  • Leather material is heavier than synthetic mesh alternatives
  • Not intended for high-intensity running
  • Limited ventilation compared to sport-specific trainers

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your shoes last, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  1. Break-in Period: Because the upper is made of leather, allow for a short break-in period where you wear them for short durations to allow the material to conform to your foot.
  2. Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth after exposure to mud or dirt. Avoid machine washing, which can damage the structural integrity and leather finish.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can cause the leather to crack or the glue bonds to degrade.
  4. Compatibility: These trainers are standard UK adult sizes; use a shoe horn when putting them on to protect the heel counter and preserve the fit.
