FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The Patrick Dijon trainers typically follow standard UK sizing; however, since they feature a padded collar, you may want to ensure you are wearing the socks you intend to pair them with when testing the fit.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No, you should never submerge suede trainers in water or put them in a washing machine, as this will damage the material and glue.
What is the best way to clean off dried mud?
Allow the mud to dry completely, then use a dry, soft-bristled brush to gently flick the mud off the suede surface.
Are these suitable for gym use?
While they are called 'runners,' they are designed for lifestyle use rather than intense workouts. They lack the technical stability required for heavy lifting or high-impact training.
Do I need to treat the suede before wearing them?
Yes, applying a high-quality suede protector spray before the first wear is highly recommended to provide a barrier against liquids and debris.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks matted or flat
Use a specialized suede brush to gently stroke the nap in one direction to restore its texture.
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure the laces are threaded correctly through all eyelets and try a double-knot or a more secure reef knot.
Insole feels less supportive over time
Consider replacing the original insole with a third-party orthotic insert if you require more arch support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Patrick Dijon trainers last, it is essential to prepare them for their first wear. We recommend applying a suede-specific protective spray to repel water and dirt.
Care Instructions:
- Routine Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled suede brush to remove loose dirt and restore the nap of the material after each use.
- Stain Removal: For minor marks, use a specialist suede eraser. Avoid using water directly on the material.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
- Moisture: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper and allow them to air dry slowly at room temperature; do not use direct heat sources like heaters or hairdryers.
