FAQs
What is the primary material of the Grand Court Alpha trainers?
The trainers feature a combination of leather and synthetic materials for the upper, providing durability and style.
Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?
These trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and everyday comfort. They are not intended for high-impact athletic activities.
How do I clean the Cloudfoam cushioning?
The Cloudfoam cushioning is part of the insole and midsole. Clean the exterior sole and upper as per the care instructions. The cushioning itself should be cleaned by wiping with a damp cloth, ensuring it dries thoroughly.
Do the Grand Court Alpha trainers come in other colors?

What makes the design 'modern' compared to classic trainers?
The modern aspects include oversized 3 stripes, chunky laces, a padded tongue, and a generally bolder silhouette, distinguishing them from more minimalist classic designs.
How does the sizing run for these trainers?

Can the laces be replaced?
Yes, the laces are standard and can be replaced if they become worn or if you wish to change the style. They are designed to be easily removed and re-tied.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try wearing thinner socks or loosening the laces. The leather may also stretch slightly with wear.
Stains on the leather upper
Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn stains, use a specialized leather cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Discomfort during initial wear
This is normal for new shoes. Break them in gradually by wearing them for short periods. The Cloudfoam cushioning should provide comfort once the shoes conform to your feet.
Squeaking noise
This can sometimes occur due to friction between parts of the shoe. Try to identify the source of the squeak. Loosening or tightening laces, or applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.

- Laces: Laces can be removed and hand-washed with mild soap and water. Ensure they are completely dry before re-lacing.
- Interior: The soft textile lining can be spot-cleaned with a damp cloth. Allow the interior to air dry completely.
- Sole: Clean the rubber sole with a brush or damp cloth to remove dirt.
- Storage: Store the trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape.
