FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?
While inspired by basketball designs, these are lifestyle trainers and are not recommended for competitive court play.
How do I determine my size?
These shoes follow standard UK sizing for adults. Use your standard trainer size, keeping in mind the regular fit design.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the synthetic leather and suede components. Stick to hand cleaning with a damp cloth.
Are they waterproof?
They are water-resistant to a degree due to the synthetic upper, but they are not fully waterproof.
What is the benefit of the mid-cut design?
The mid-cut design provides extra coverage and support around the ankle area compared to low-top trainers.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the synthetic upper
Use shoe trees when not in use to maintain the shape of the toe box.
Dirty suede toe cap
Use a dry suede brush or a soft eraser to gently lift dirt without using liquid cleaners.
Slippage at the heel
Ensure laces are tightened correctly using the top eyelets to lock the heel in place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last, follow these guidelines. Setup is straightforward: simply adjust the lace closure to your desired tightness for a secure, regular fit. For compatibility, these unisex trainers are sized for adults and perform best with mid-to-high socks to prevent friction against the ankle collar. To care for the synthetic leather and suede elements, avoid machine washing. Instead, wipe the synthetic upper with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Use a specialized suede brush to gently clean the toe cap, avoiding excess water which can damage the nap of the suede.
