FAQs

What materials are these Autry trainers made from?

The exterior is composed of 50% nylon, 40% calf leather, and 10% mesh. The lining is 100% textile, and the sole is 100% rubber.

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

These trainers are designed for everyday casual wear and feature a retro tennis-inspired silhouette. While comfortable for walking, they are not intended for rigorous athletic performance.

How should I clean the leather parts of the trainers?

Use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner. Apply sparingly with a soft cloth and buff gently. For general cleaning, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but avoid saturating the leather.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the mixed materials, adhesives, and structure of the trainers.

What is the fit like for these trainers?

The trainers feature a classic silhouette with a padded ankle collar for comfort. They generally run true to size, but it's always recommended to check size guides or try them on if possible.

How do I care for the lilac charm detail?

The lilac charm should be treated gently. Wipe it clean with a dry or very slightly damp cloth. Avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals or prolonged moisture.

What is the main benefit of the mixed material construction?

The mix of nylon, calf leather, and mesh offers a balance of durability, breathability, and a premium aesthetic, contributing to both comfort and style for daily wear.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

This is common with new leather and textile shoes. Wear them for short periods indoors to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly.

Color transfer from the lilac accents.

If the lilac charm or inserts show color transfer, it may be due to moisture. Gently wipe the affected area with a dry cloth. Avoid wearing in very wet conditions until they are well-seasoned or have been treated with a protective spray (test on an inconspicuous area first).

Soles appear worn after moderate use.

Rubber soles naturally wear down over time. For minor wear, a cobbler might be able to re-sole them. Ensure you are not using them for activities beyond their intended casual use.

Dirt embedded in mesh or nylon sections.

Use a soft brush (like a toothbrush) with a mild soap and water solution to gently scrub the affected areas. Rinse with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.

Care Instructions:
