FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Grand Court Alpha is designed as a lifestyle trainer for casual walking and daily wear, not for athletic performance or long-distance running.
How do I keep the suede clean?
Regularly brush the suede with a soft brush and use a specialized suede protector spray to guard against stains and water.
What is the fit like?
These shoes follow a standard regular fit, though the padded tongue provides a snug, secure feeling around the top of the foot.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the suede material and affect the integrity of the adhesive; stick to spot cleaning with dry brushes.
Does the Cloudfoam midsole hold up over time?
Yes, Cloudfoam is specifically engineered for lasting comfort and is designed to maintain its supportive properties during daily use.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt or dust on the suede surface
Use a dry, soft-bristled suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface debris.
Foot feels slightly cramped or tight
Loosen the thick laces starting from the toe box upwards to allow more volume and ease pressure on the instep.
Stains appearing on the suede
Apply a dedicated suede cleaning kit according to the manufacturer's instructions; do not use heavy water or chemical detergents.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Grand Court Alphas maintain their aesthetic, follow these guidelines. Setup is straightforward: ensure the laces are adjusted to your preferred tension upon first wear to allow the padded tongue to settle comfortably. For compatibility, these trainers pair exceptionally well with denim or chinos due to their classic yet bold profile. Regarding care, because the upper is made of suede, you should avoid machine washing. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt, and apply a suede-specific water repellent spray to protect against light moisture and stains. If the shoes get wet, air-dry them away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the material from stiffening or cracking.
