FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

These trainers are designed for casual, everyday lifestyle wear and are not engineered for professional running.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles can typically be removed and replaced with custom orthotics if preferred.

Do these trainers run true to size?

They generally follow standard UK sizing; however, individual fit preference can vary based on sock thickness.

Is the material waterproof?

The leather upper is not waterproof. It is recommended to use a protective leather spray if you anticipate light rain.

What is the primary material used?

The exterior is crafted from durable leather, complemented by an EVA midsole and a rubber outsole.

Troubleshooting

The shoes feel tight across the midfoot

Loosen the laces starting from the bottom eyelets to distribute pressure more evenly before tying.

Surface scuffs on leather

Use a soft brush or a leather-specific eraser to gently buff out minor marks.

Outsole losing traction

Clean the rubber sole with mild soapy water and a stiff brush to remove accumulated debris.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Classic, versatile aesthetic
  • Lightweight cushioning via EVA midsole
  • Padded interior for improved comfort
  • Durable leather construction

Cons

  • Leather material requires specific maintenance
  • Limited to lifestyle and casual use
  • Non-breathable compared to synthetic mesh alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers last, proper care is essential for the leather upper. Keep the shoes away from prolonged exposure to extreme moisture or direct heat sources, as these can crack the material. Clean regularly using a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dirt, and use a dedicated leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple. For the best compatibility, ensure you have measured your foot accurately for your specific UK size, as the lace-up closure provides a precise fit that relies on selecting the correct size initially.
