FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing, though the slim-line fit may feel snugger than wider athletic trainers.
Can I use these for running?
These are designed as lifestyle sneakers based on a vintage silhouette and lack the advanced cushioning and support features of modern running shoes.
How do I clean the leather?
Use a damp, soft cloth to wipe away debris. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner applied gently with a cloth.
Is the leather water-resistant?
The leather is durable, but not waterproof. We recommend using a leather-safe water repellent spray if you intend to wear them in light rain.
What is the primary difference between these and modern trainers?
The Montreal 76 focuses on historical accuracy and a slim aesthetic, whereas modern trainers prioritize high-tech foam cushioning and synthetic breathable meshes.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
Due to their slim-line design, they may feel tight for individuals with wider feet. We recommend trying them on with thin socks first.
Troubleshooting
Leather looks dull after heavy wear
Apply a high-quality leather conditioner to restore moisture and shine.
Creasing at the toe box
Use cedar shoe trees when not in use to maintain the shape and minimize deep creases.
Outer sole loses grip over time
Clean the tread with a stiff brush and mild soapy water to remove embedded debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your leather trainers remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Upon arrival, ensure the UK 7 size provides a comfortable fit, allowing for a small amount of room in the toe box. For care, wipe down the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth after wear to remove dust and dirt. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the leather and the integrity of the adhesive on the rubber sole. If the shoes become wet, air dry them at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the leather to crack or shrink.
