FAQs

What material are the A BATHING APE Sta 1 M2 Trainers made of?

The trainers feature a leather upper with patent overlays and a durable rubber sole.

Are these trainers suitable for sports or heavy physical activity?

No, these trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday use. They are not intended for athletic performance or intense physical activities.

How should I clean the patent leather parts?

Clean patent leather with a soft, damp cloth. Use a specialized patent leather cleaner or conditioner to maintain its shine and prevent damage. Buff with a soft, dry cloth.

What does the 'STA #1 M2' designation mean?

This likely refers to the specific model and iteration within the A BATHING APE footwear line, indicating its design and collection placement.

How do I care for the branded lace charm?

The lace charm is a decorative accessory. Clean it gently with a soft cloth as needed. Avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals or excessive moisture to prevent damage or discoloration.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

These trainers are not waterproof. While the leather and rubber offer some protection, it is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or very wet conditions to maintain their condition.

What is the primary style these trainers are designed for?

They are designed for streetwear and casual everyday wear, reflecting BAPE's influence on contemporary fashion.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise during wear

This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try wearing them for a few more days to break them in. If the noise persists, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.

Patent overlay appears dull or scratched

Clean the patent area with a soft, damp cloth. For dullness, use a specific patent leather cleaner or conditioner and buff gently with a soft, dry cloth. For minor scratches, a patent leather repair kit might be useful.

Laces are difficult to tie or keep tied

Ensure the laces are the correct length and material. You may need to re-lace the shoes, ensuring an even distribution of tension. Consider a different lacing pattern or double-knotting.

Discomfort around the ankle

Ensure the shoes are laced correctly, not too tight or too loose. The low padded collar should provide comfort; breaking the shoes in gradually can help alleviate initial stiffness.
