What is the significance of the Neighborhood collaboration?
Neighborhood is a Japanese streetwear brand known for its distinct aesthetic. This collaboration means the trainers feature unique design elements and branding specific to that partnership, making them a collectible item.
How durable is the leather on these trainers?
The leather used is generally durable for casual wear. However, like all leather products, it requires proper care and maintenance to ensure longevity and prevent premature wear and tear.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain can damage the leather and affect comfort. It's best to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and the shoe bed. Try removing the insole, cleaning both surfaces, and then reinserting the insole. A small amount of powder on the insole can also help.
Leather appears dry or creased
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner or cream to moisturize the leather. Gently work it into the material with a soft cloth. Avoid over-conditioning.
Discoloration on white sole edges
Use a magic eraser or a melamine sponge with a little water to gently scrub the white rubber edges. For tougher marks, a mild cleaning solution can be applied with a cloth.
