Product Information
Full details
The R21 Original Porto Trainers are designed for adult men who need a versatile footwear solution that bridges the gap between casual comfort and smart-casual aesthetics. These trainers offer the significant benefit of a memory foam sock for sustained underfoot cushioning throughout the day, though users should note that they are optimized for dry, everyday environments rather than high-intensity athletic performance.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Porto trainers are designed for casual, everyday wear and do not provide the stability or impact protection required for running.
How do I maintain the memory foam?
Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the foam structure. Keep them dry and clean with a damp cloth.
Are these true to size?
Yes, they are manufactured to standard UK sizing for adults.
Can I wear these to a business casual event?
Their sleek aesthetic and classic design make them an excellent choice for business casual settings.
What is the sole material?
The sole is made from TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber), which provides a balance of grip and flexibility.
Are these trainers breathable?
The soft textile lining is designed to be breathable, helping to keep your feet comfortable during daily activities.
Troubleshooting
The fit feels too tight initially
Memory foam requires a short break-in period to fully compress to your foot shape; wear them indoors for a few hours to allow for adjustment.
Surface scuffs appearing
Use a soft brush or slightly damp cloth to gently buff out marks on the upper material.
Reduced grip on wet floors
While the TPR sole offers good general traction, be mindful of slick, polished, or wet surfaces as these are casual lifestyle trainers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Porto trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes are designed in standard UK adult sizes; ensure you select your regular size as the memory foam creates a snug, adaptive fit.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the outer surface to remove surface dust or dirt.
- Moisture Protection: As these trainers feature a textile lining and construction, avoid heavy saturation. If they get wet, air-dry them naturally at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the material.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the memory foam.
