FAQs

How do I know if the size is correct?

These trainers fit true to size based on European sizing. It is recommended to consult a European to UK size conversion chart if you are unfamiliar with this sizing system. Trying them on is the best way to ensure a proper fit.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear these trainers in wet weather, especially due to the suede panels. Exposure to moisture can lead to staining and damage. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally and consider professional cleaning.

What type of socks should I wear with these trainers?

You can wear various types of socks. For a classic look, opt for neutral-colored cotton or wool socks. Thin dress socks can also complement the refined aesthetic for smarter occasions.

Are these suitable for athletic performance?

While inspired by athletic silhouettes, these trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle wear and fashion. They offer comfort and grip for everyday activities but are not intended for rigorous athletic training.

How often should I get them professionally cleaned?

The frequency of professional cleaning depends on how often you wear them and the conditions. For regular wear, a professional clean once or twice a year, or as needed when visible dirt appears, is generally sufficient.

What is the signature back stitch?

The signature back stitch is a subtle, often white, stitch detail located at the heel of the shoe, which is a distinctive mark of Maison Margiela's design.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the lacing system to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. If the overall size is incorrect, consider if an exchange for a different size is possible, referencing European sizing guides.

Suede appears marked or discolored.

For minor marks, a soft suede brush can sometimes help. For significant discoloration or stains, professional cleaning is recommended. Avoid using water.

Leather looks dull.

This typically indicates a need for professional cleaning and conditioning. Do not use standard leather conditioners, as they may be unsuitable for this specific type of premium leather.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

These trainers require no specific setup beyond trying them on for fit. Ensure the laces are adjusted comfortably for your preferred level of snugness.

Compatibility:

These trainers are designed for adult wear and are compatible with a wide range of casual and smart-casual outfits. They are best suited for individuals who appreciate designer footwear and classic styling.

Care:

  • Professional Clean Only: Due to the premium calf leather and suede materials, it is crucial to only use professional cleaning services. Attempting to clean these shoes with water or household cleaners can damage the materials and affect their appearance.
  • Suede Care: Keep suede panels dry. If they become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Consider using a suede protector spray (testing on an inconspicuous area first) to help guard against light stains and watermarks, although professional advice should be sought.
  • Storage: Store the trainers in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a dust bag to protect them from dust and potential damage.
