FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for athletic activities?

No, these trainers are designed for casual wear and fashion, not for high-impact sports or athletic performance.

How do I clean the raw sole?

The raw sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth or a soft brush. Mild soap and water can be used for tougher dirt, but ensure to wipe it clean with a damp cloth afterward.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede trainers in wet weather. Suede is susceptible to water damage and staining. Use a suede protector spray for minor protection, but avoid heavy rain.

What is the best way to store these trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using the original box or a dust bag can help maintain their shape and protect them from dust.

What does 'tonal finish' mean?

A tonal finish means that the colors used throughout the shoe are in similar shades or variations of the main color, creating a cohesive and monochromatic look.

How often should I apply suede protector?

Apply suede protector before the first wear and reapply every few months, or after cleaning, depending on usage and exposure to the elements.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears discolored or stained.

Use a suede eraser to gently lift the stain. For persistent marks, consult a specialist suede cleaner and follow instructions precisely. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Soles have accumulated dirt.

Use a damp cloth or a soft brush to clean the rubber sole. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.

Laces are dirty.

Remove the laces and hand wash them gently with mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing the trainers.

Loss of suede texture.

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush in a consistent direction to restore its nap and texture.
