FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The R71 is a lifestyle trainer inspired by 1970s designs and is intended for casual use, not for high-intensity athletic running.

How do I clean the suede?

Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and avoid water contact.

Does the mesh upper provide enough support?

The mesh is designed for breathability; it offers a flexible fit that is comfortable for daily walking.

What is the primary material?

The shoe features a combination of a breathable mesh base with suede overlays.

Can I wear these in the rain?

It is not recommended. Suede is porous and can be easily damaged or stained by water.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on suede surface

Use a specialized suede brush or a clean pencil eraser to gently lift dirt from the nap of the suede.

Creasing at the toe box

Use shoe trees when not wearing to help maintain the original silhouette and minimize deep creases.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Distinctive vintage-inspired aesthetic
  • High breathability due to mesh construction
  • Quality suede detailing
  • Versatile design for casual outfits

Cons

  • Suede material is sensitive to moisture and stains
  • Limited to specific size ranges
  • Not intended for high-intensity athletic performance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because the R71 features suede, it is highly recommended to apply a protective suede spray before the first wear to guard against dirt and minor water exposure. To clean the shoes, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry surface dust from the suede and a damp cloth for the mesh areas. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes, as this can degrade the suede texture and the adhesive bonding. Ensure proper fit by measuring your feet against the UK size guide, keeping in mind that suede may offer a slight break-in period.
