What is the primary design influence?

The design fuses traditional athletic heritage with contemporary street styling, a hallmark of the adidas Originals and Wales Bonner collaboration.

The Wales Bonner logo is incorporated onto the shoes for brand recognition and to signify the collaboration.

Troubleshooting

Leather creasing or cracking

Ensure the shoes are conditioned regularly and avoid over-tightening laces. Store with shoe trees to maintain shape.

Discoloration of leather

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean with a damp cloth and use appropriate leather cleaners if necessary.

Sole separation

This is uncommon with proper care. If it occurs, consult a shoe repair specialist.

Fit feels too tight/loose

Adjust lacing to find a comfortable fit. Leather will mold to the foot over time; consider socks of appropriate thickness.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For stubborn marks on the leather, consider a specialized leather cleaner.
  2. Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent drying or cracking.
