FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, these are lifestyle trainers designed for walking and casual wear, not for long-distance running or high-intensity sports.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives used in the construction of the shoe.
Do these trainers fit true to size?
Yes, they feature a regular fit, but if you prefer extra room for thicker socks, consider that the leather upper has limited stretch compared to knit fabrics.
Are the soles non-marking?
The classic rubber outsole is generally safe for indoor gym floors, but always check specific venue regulations.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed from a blend of durable leather and synthetic materials.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming untied frequently
Ensure you are using a double-knot or a secure reef knot if the laces are smooth synthetic material.
Leather surface showing scuff marks
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft eraser to gently buff out surface scuffs.
Inside lining feeling damp
Remove the inserts if possible and allow the shoes to air dry in a well-ventilated area for 24 hours.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your trainers, follow these care and setup guidelines:
- Sizing: Ensure you check the specific UK size for your foot, as these follow a standard adult regular fit.
- Initial Break-in: The leather upper may feel slightly stiff at first; wear them for shorter periods during the first few days to allow the material to conform to your foot.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather and synthetic upper with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the leather to crack or fade over time.
- Lacing: Adjust the lace tension regularly to maintain proper foot support without cutting off circulation.
