FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, these are fashion trainers inspired by tennis silhouettes and are not designed for running or high-impact athletic activities.
Do these trainers run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adult sizing, but as they are made of leather, they may offer a snug fit initially before molding to your foot.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as the leather, embossed trims, and foam insoles can be damaged by high-heat cycles and prolonged water submersion.
What is the best way to clean the white leather?
Use a damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner. Always wipe dry immediately after cleaning to prevent water spots.
Can I remove the insole?
The cushioned foam insole is typically designed as part of the shoe structure. Forcing it out may compromise the comfort and fit.
Are the materials sustainable?
The Ainsley series utilizes high-quality leather. Please refer to the brand's specific sustainability documentation for detailed sourcing information.
Troubleshooting
Visible scuffs on the white leather
Gently use a white eraser or a leather-specific cleaning sponge to lift surface marks.
Laces becoming frayed or dirty
Remove the laces and wash them in a mesh laundry bag on a gentle cycle, or replace them with standard white cotton laces of the same length.
Inside insole feels damp after a long day
Remove the laces slightly and allow the shoe to air out in a well-ventilated area for 24 hours away from direct heat sources.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Ainsley Trainers remain in top condition, follow these care instructions:
- Routine Cleaning: Wipe the leather surface regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt and dust.
- Stain Removal: For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner approved for white leather. Test in an inconspicuous area first.
- Trim Care: Use only a soft, dry cloth for the python-embossed trim to avoid damaging the textured finish.
- Moisture Protection: Apply a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray before first use to guard against rain and accidental spills.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent the white leather from yellowing or the materials from drying out.
