FAQs
What is the primary material used in these shoes?
The shoes are primarily constructed from a blend of waxed canvas and suede, with a leather lining and a rubber outsole.
Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?
These shoes are designed for everyday casual wear and comfort, not for rigorous athletic activities. For sports, specialized athletic footwear is recommended.
How do I clean the suede parts of the shoe?
Use a suede brush to clean off dry dirt. For tougher stains, a specialized suede cleaner can be used, followed by air drying.
What does 'intentionally frayed panel edges' mean?
This refers to a design feature where the edges of the material panels are deliberately left with a slightly 'worn' or frayed appearance for aesthetic effect.
Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?
While the waxed canvas offers some resistance, prolonged exposure to wet conditions is not recommended, especially for the suede. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.
What is the main inspiration behind the BW Army design?
The design is inspired by the classic German Army Trainer (Gat) with a modern, minimalist interpretation.
How should I store these shoes when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe bag can help protect the materials from dust and scratches.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or matted
Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush. For stubborn marks, use a suede cleaner according to product instructions and allow to air dry completely.
Canvas material is stained
Wipe the affected area with a damp cloth. If a stain persists, use a mild soap solution and water, then rinse lightly and air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Fit feels slightly tight
Wear the shoes with thin socks for a short period to allow them to naturally stretch. Ensure you have selected the correct size using the provided sizing guide before purchase.
Sole shows signs of wear
Clean the rubber outsole regularly with a brush or damp cloth to remove accumulated dirt. For significant wear, consult a shoe repair specialist for potential sole replacement.
