Troubleshooting
White leather appears dull or dirty
Regularly wipe the trainers with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated white leather cleaner following product instructions. Consider applying a leather conditioner to restore luster.
Creases forming on the leather
Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather with wear. To minimize, use shoe trees when storing your trainers to help maintain their shape. Avoid excessively tight lacing.
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the sole. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of baby powder underneath, and then reinserting it. If the issue persists, the squeak might be internal.
Trainers feel too stiff initially
Leather shoes often require a 'break-in' period. Wear them for short durations around the house initially to allow the leather to soften and conform to your foot shape. Wearing thick socks can also help during this period.
Sole shows signs of wear or reduced grip
While the rubber sole is durable, excessive wear can diminish grip over time. This is normal. For serious damage, consult a professional cobbler for repair options.
