FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Train 89 generally fits consistent with standard UK sizing conventions for men's footwear.
Can I run a marathon in these?
No, these are lifestyle fashion trainers inspired by 1970s running shoes, not professional performance running gear.
How do I clean the grosgrain trim?
Use a soft brush and a mild detergent solution, dabbing gently rather than scrubbing to avoid fraying the fabric.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is primarily constructed from leather, supplemented by textile accents and a durable rubber outsole.
Are they suitable for rainy weather?
While the rubber sole provides good traction, the leather and mesh construction is not waterproof. Avoid heavy puddles to prevent staining.
Is the insole removable?
Yes, the cushioned mesh insole can typically be removed for cleaning or if you need to insert custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty keeping the white surface clean
Use a specialized leather cleaning foam and a soft-bristled brush specifically designed for footwear.
Laces coming undone frequently
Consider a double-knot or replacing the laces with high-friction cotton laces if the original finish is too slick.

Care Instructions
- Spot Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material discolouration.
- Protection: Use a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray to help maintain the white finish.
- Insole Maintenance: If the mesh insole absorbs moisture, remove it temporarily to allow for proper air drying.
