FAQs
Are these sneakers true to size?
The Replica Trainers generally follow standard European sizing. We recommend selecting your usual size, keeping in mind the structure of the leather.
How do I identify a genuine pair?
Look for the signature single white stitch on the heel and the embossed numeric logo on the tongue, which are standard identifiers for this series.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing will damage the leather and suede materials. Always clean by hand using appropriate leather/suede care products.
Is the sole non-slip?
The signature honey-colored gum sole provides good grip on standard surfaces, though it is not rated as industrial non-slip footwear.
What should I do if the leather gets wet?
Wipe away excess moisture with a clean, dry cloth immediately and allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators.
Are the laces replaceable?
Yes, the lace-up closure uses standard eyelets, allowing you to easily swap the laces if they become worn or stained.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on suede panels
Use a dry suede eraser or a soft-bristled brush to gently lift dirt without damaging the nap.
Creasing on the leather upper
Insert wooden shoe trees when the sneakers are not in use to help the leather recover its shape and reduce deep creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Replica Trainers last, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in: Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the leather to conform to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove surface dust from the suede panels. Avoid saturating the leather with water.
- Protection: Apply a water-repellent spray specifically designed for leather and suede before the first use to protect against minor liquid contact.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the colors of the leather over time. Use shoe trees to help maintain the structural integrity of the silhouette.
