FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the JAPAN S is designed as a fashion sneaker for lifestyle use and is not engineered for running or high-impact athletic performance.
How do I clean the suede inserts?
Use a specialized suede brush or a dry, soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust and dirt.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to wash these in a machine, as the heat and agitation can damage the synthetic leather and glue bonds.
Does this model fit true to size?
Generally, the JAPAN S fits true to standard UK sizes. If you prefer extra room for thick socks, you may consider a half-size up.
Are these made of genuine leather?
The JAPAN S uses a smooth synthetic leather blend to achieve its signature look while maintaining durability.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on synthetic leather
Wipe the surface with a soft, slightly dampened cloth; do not use harsh chemical cleaners.
Creasing at the forefoot
Use shoe trees when not wearing to help the material maintain its shape over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your JAPAN S trainers in top condition, focus on proper material maintenance. Since the upper consists of synthetic leather and suede inserts, avoid submerging them in water. Instead, spot clean any dirt with a soft, damp cloth and a mild detergent. Use a suede-specific brush to gently lift debris from the suede inserts. For the laces, remove them periodically and hand-wash in warm, soapy water to maintain a fresh look. Ensure the shoes are kept away from direct heat sources when drying to prevent the synthetic materials from warping or stiffening.
