FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for athletic training?
These sneakers are designed primarily for style and everyday comfort. While they have performance-oriented features like a cushioned sole and good grip, they are not intended for rigorous athletic training.
What is the best way to clean the leather parts?
Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For deeper cleaning, use a product specifically designed for coated leather, and always test on an inconspicuous area first. Refer to the care label for detailed instructions.
Can I remove the insole?
Yes, the insole is removable, allowing for easier cleaning or replacement with custom orthotics if needed.
What material is the sole made of?
The outsole is made of 100% ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), which is known for its lightweight and cushioning properties, and it features an antislippery rubber finish for traction.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
Refer to the product's sizing guide and compare your foot measurements to the UK sizing provided. The product specifies UK 9.5 for this variant.
What does the 'Hexagon' in the product name refer to?
The 'Hexagon' refers to the distinctive hexagonal PP logo plaque featured on the outer side of the shoe, which is a signature design element of this series.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight
Loosen the laces. If still tight, ensure you have the correct size. The leather may also stretch slightly with wear.
Squeaking noise from shoes
This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try inserting a powder-free insole or checking if any part of the sole is rubbing against the upper.
Difficulty cleaning scuffs on leather
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn marks, consult a professional leather care specialist.
