FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While originally designed for athletics in the 1980s, the LA Trainer OG is now classified as a lifestyle/casual trainer. It is best suited for walking and daily wear rather than high-performance running.
How should I clean the white midsole?
You can clean the EVA midsole by using a soft cloth with a mild soap and water solution to wipe away scuffs and grime.
Are the heel plugs functional?
In the original version, they were used for cushioning adjustment. In this modern reissue, they primarily serve as a decorative element of the heritage design.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing can damage the suede materials and adhesive bonding. Always clean by hand.
What is the best way to protect the blue suede?
Apply a high-quality, suede-safe waterproof spray to add a protective barrier against water and dirt.
Does the shoe run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adult sizing. If you have particularly wide feet, you may consider a half-size up.
Troubleshooting
Heel plugs feeling loose
The plugs are part of the original design aesthetic; ensure they are pressed firmly into the midsole housing. They are not intended for frequent removal.
Suede appears dull or dirty
Brush the suede in one direction using a suede brush to restore the nap and lift away fine dust.
Outsole losing traction
Check the lugs for debris, gravel, or pebbles wedged in the grooves and pry them out carefully using a blunt tool.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers maintain their look, follow these care steps:
- Regular Maintenance: Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt from the suede overlays.
- Stain Removal: For stubborn stains, use a suede-specific cleaning eraser or a specialized suede cleaner.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the blue fabric from fading.
- Weather Protection: Consider applying a protective suede water-repellent spray before initial wear to shield the material from light moisture.
- Fit: These trainers are designed for standard sizing; ensure your lace tension is even across the eyelets to maintain proper structural support.
