FAQs

What makes the Ball Star trainers unique?

Their uniqueness comes from the hand-finished, intentionally aged 'vintage' look, combined with distinctive design elements like the star motif and animal print accents, all crafted in Italy.

Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?

No, these are fashion trainers designed for comfortable everyday wear and style, not for athletic performance.

How should I clean the suede and pony skin parts?

For suede, use a specialized brush and cleaner. For pony skin, a gentle wipe with a dry or slightly damp cloth is recommended. Avoid soaking or using harsh chemicals.

Do the trainers come with extra laces?

The product information does not specify if extra laces are included. Typically, they come with one set of laces.

What is the sole made of?

The trainers feature a durable rubber sole.

How do I know my correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer or check the specific sizing information (e.g., EU sizing) if available. They are generally true to size for a fashion trainer fit.

What does 'intentionally aged finish' mean?

It means the shoes are designed to look worn or vintage from the point of purchase. Imperfections, scuffs, and variations in color are deliberate design features.

Troubleshooting

Scuffs or marks on the intentionally aged finish

These marks are part of the intentional design. If you prefer a cleaner look, gentle cleaning with a damp cloth may slightly reduce their appearance, but the distressed aesthetic is inherent to the product.

Squeaking sound during wear

This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try wearing them more frequently or inserting a powder (like talcum powder) inside the shoe to absorb moisture and reduce friction.

Laces becoming dirty

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

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure the trainers are laced correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit. Wear with appropriate socks. If discomfort persists, consider using heel grips or insoles.
