Axel Arigato Clean 90 Trainers - Black Leather - UK 9

The Clean 90 trainers feature a smooth Italian leather upper, a comfortable calf leather lining, and a durable rubber cupsole.

Axel Arigato generally runs true to size. If you are typically between sizes, it is often recommended to choose the smaller size, as leather will stretch slightly over time. For specific guidance, refer to the brand's official sizing chart.

Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth after each use. For more thorough cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.

While the leather is high quality, it's best to avoid heavy rain to protect the material. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat and apply a leather conditioner once dry.

A cupsole is a type of sole construction where the upper part of the shoe sits inside a 'cup' of rubber. This construction provides excellent durability, support, and protection for the foot.

All Axel Arigato Clean 90 trainers are meticulously handcrafted in Portugal, ensuring premium quality and attention to detail.

The Clean 90 trainers include a cushioned footbed for general comfort and support. While they offer good cushioning, individuals requiring specific arch support may consider adding their preferred insoles.

Gently clean the affected area with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper scuffs or to restore shine, apply a small amount of quality leather conditioner or polish designed for smooth leather, buffing gently with a clean cloth.

High-quality leather shoes often require a 'break-in' period. Wear your trainers for short durations (1-2 hours) over several days to allow the Italian leather and calf lining to naturally mold to the unique shape of your foot.

Clean the rubber sole using a mild soap solution and a brush (like an old toothbrush) or a specialized sneaker cleaner. Wipe thoroughly with a damp cloth afterward to remove any residue.

Creasing is a natural characteristic of genuine leather and indicates the shoe is molding to your foot. Regular conditioning and using shoe trees when not worn can help minimize excessive creasing and maintain the shoe's overall shape.
