FAQs
What materials are these trainers made from?
The trainers feature a combination of suede and leather overlays on the upper, with a rubber sole and a TPU insert at the heel.
Are these suitable for running or intense sports?
These trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer comfort for walking and light activity, they are not engineered for high-impact sports or dedicated running.
How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?
Use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a suede eraser or a mild suede cleaner can be used. It's recommended to treat suede with a protective spray.
Do the trainers come in other colors?
Yes, the Train 89 V2 series is available in various colorways, including grey and black, in addition to this beige option.
What is the heel height of these trainers?
The heel height is flat, consistent with the design of retro-inspired running shoes.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the brand's sizing chart for Polo Ralph Lauren footwear. It is advisable to measure your foot and compare it with the provided dimensions, as shoe fits can vary.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather components offer some protection, suede is sensitive to moisture. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions. Using a waterproofing spray designed for footwear can offer some protection.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears discolored or matted
Gently brush the suede with a suede brush in one direction to restore its nap. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner, following product instructions carefully.
Laces are difficult to tie or keep tied
Ensure laces are made of a material that holds knots well. If laces are worn or frayed, consider replacing them with new ones.
Discomfort or rubbing after initial wear
Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods. Ensure correct sizing and consider using thicker socks initially. If persistent, consult a shoe specialist.
Sole shows signs of wear or separation
Minor wear can sometimes be addressed with shoe repair glue suitable for rubber soles. For significant damage, professional repair or replacement might be necessary.
