FAQs
What materials are these trainers made from?
The Clae Deane Trainers feature a luxurious suede upper and Italian Nappa leather accents, with an outsole crafted from 30% natural rubber.
How do I clean the suede and Nappa leather?
For suede, use a specialized suede brush and eraser. For Nappa leather, wipe with a soft, damp cloth and a gentle leather cleaner. Always pre-treat with a protective spray.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, these trainers are not inherently waterproof. We recommend applying a water and stain repellent spray suitable for suede and leather to offer some protection against light moisture.
Can I use these trainers for sports activities?
While they are 'court sneakers' in style, the Clae Deane Trainers are designed for casual wear and lifestyle purposes, not for rigorous athletic or performance sports activities.
What is the 'SP Outsole'?
The SP (Standard Premium) Outsole is Clae's durable sole construction, featuring a significant portion (30%) of natural rubber for enhanced longevity and comfort compared to standard synthetic soles.
Are these trainers true to size?
Clae generally runs true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size for the best fit. If you are between sizes, consider reviewing specific brand sizing guides or customer feedback.
Troubleshooting
Trainers appear dirty or stained after wear.
For suede, use a suede brush and eraser for dry dirt and scuffs. For Nappa leather, wipe gently with a damp cloth and mild leather cleaner. Apply a protective spray regularly to prevent future stains.
Suede nap looks matted or flattened.
Gently brush the suede with a specialized suede brush in one direction to lift the nap and restore its texture.
White outsoles are discolored or scuffed.
Clean the outsoles using a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and a mixture of mild soap and water or a dedicated sneaker cleaner. For stubborn scuffs, a magic eraser can be effective on rubber.
Trainers feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
New leather trainers often require a 'break-in' period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. The leather will soften and conform to your foot over time.
Trainers develop an odor.
Allow your trainers to air out after each wear. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Ensure they are completely dry before storing.

Care Instructions
Proper care is crucial for maintaining the luxurious look and extending the life of your suede and Nappa leather trainers.
- Initial Protection: Before first wear, apply a high-quality water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede and leather. Reapply periodically as directed by the product.
- Regular Cleaning:
- Suede: Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt and restore the nap. For tougher marks, use a suede eraser.
- Nappa Leather: Wipe clean with a soft, slightly damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a dedicated leather cleaner following product instructions.
- Outsoles: Clean with a damp cloth or a soft brush and mild soap to remove dirt and grime.
- Spot Treatment: Address spills or stains immediately. For liquid stains on suede, gently blot with a clean cloth, do not rub. For leather, wipe gently.
- Drying: If your trainers get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use harsh detergents, bleach, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the materials.
