FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adult sizing, though individuals with wider feet may prefer to size up by half.
Can I use these for running?
While inspired by running classics, these are lifestyle shoes. They are not intended for heavy athletic use or long-distance training.
How do I maintain the beige color?
Use a specialized fabric protector spray suitable for polyester and linen before the first wear to repel liquids and dirt.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles can be removed to accommodate custom orthotics if necessary.
Can these be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as it can damage the cushioning materials and glues; hand cleaning is best.
What is the difference between ABZORB and ABZORB SBS?
Standard ABZORB provides traditional foam cushioning, while ABZORB SBS adds extra stability and impact resistance in the heel area.
Troubleshooting
Visible surface stains on beige fabric
Use a soft-bristled brush with mild soap and water to gently treat the affected area, then air dry.
Sole grip feels slippery on wet surfaces
Ensure the textured grip pattern is free of packed dirt or debris by cleaning the outsole with a stiff brush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are lifestyle trainers, no technical setup is required; simply adjust the laces for your desired tension. To ensure longevity, keep the polyester or linen uppers free from deep stains by wiping them down with a damp cloth immediately after exposure to dirt. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent material damage or warping. For a consistent fit, consider using a shoe tree when not in use to maintain the silhouette of the padded collar.
