FAQs

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart or try them on indoors on a clean surface. These are unisex trainers, but the sizing provided is typically based on women's UK sizing. Consider your usual shoe size and any specific fit notes for this model.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the leather can be treated for some water resistance, these are primarily fashion trainers. Extended exposure to heavy rain is not recommended as it can damage the leather and embellishments. Ensure they are thoroughly dried if they get wet.

What is the material of the oversized sole?

The sole is made of rubber, designed to be durable and provide cushioning.

Are these trainers suitable for sports or athletic activities?

No, these are fashion trainers designed for style and comfort in everyday wear, not for high-impact sports or athletic performance.

How do I clean the crystal heel counter?

Gently wipe the crystal embellishments with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using water or cleaning solutions directly on the crystals, as this could damage their adhesive or finish.

Will the white leather stain easily?

White leather requires diligent care. It is advisable to protect them with a suitable leather protector spray and clean any marks promptly to prevent them from setting.

What does 'Oversized Sneaker' refer to?

The term refers to the distinctive, chunky silhouette of the shoe, particularly the thick rubber sole, which is a signature design element of this model.

Troubleshooting

Laces fraying or becoming dirty.

Use the included additional set of white shoelaces. Both sets can be hand-washed with mild detergent and air-dried.

Scuffs or marks on the leather.

Gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a small amount of a specialist leather cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Oversized sole feels cumbersome.

Allow a break-in period as the leather and sole adjust to your foot. Ensure the fit is correct; if the size is wrong, consider exchanging for a more suitable size.

Crystal embellishments becoming loose.

Handle with care. If a crystal becomes loose, contact customer support for potential repair options or use a specialized adhesive for small repairs.

Care:
