FAQs
Are these shoes water-resistant?
While the materials are high-quality, they are not inherently waterproof. Using a suede-specific water repellent spray is advised.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the suede texture and the metallic finish. Clean by hand only.
How do I choose the right size?
These trainers are sized in standard UK sizing; choose the size you would typically wear in premium European footwear brands.
Are they suitable for orthotic insoles?
The ergonomic construction is designed for general support, but if you have custom orthotics, ensure they fit the shoe profile.
Can I wear these for long walks?
Yes, the ergonomic design is optimized for walking, making them suitable for long city walks or casual outings.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or matted
Use a specialized suede brush or a crepe brush to lift the fibers and restore the original texture.
Metallic finish appears smudged
Use a soft microfibre cloth dampened with a tiny amount of water to gently buff the surface.
Discomfort during initial wear
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly to allow for natural foot expansion throughout the day.

Care Instructions:
