How should I care for the leather material?

Clean the leather with a damp cloth and mild leather cleaner. Condition the leather periodically to keep it supple and prevent cracking. Protectants can help with water and stain resistance.

What is the typical lifespan of these trainers?

The lifespan depends on usage frequency and care. With regular maintenance and for casual wear, they can last several years. Heavy use or athletic activity will shorten their lifespan.

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe.

How do I know if Size 12 UK is the correct fit?

UK Size 12 is a specific measurement. It is advisable to check Nike's official sizing chart for conversion to other international sizes and to measure your foot length to ensure the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from shoes

This can sometimes occur due to moisture. Ensure shoes are completely dry. Try sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole to absorb moisture and reduce friction.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace laces with new ones of a similar length and material. Consider using wax-coated laces for increased durability.

Discoloration on leather

Use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid exposure to prolonged direct sunlight.
