FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

These trainers are designed for fashion and casual wear. While they are durable for everyday activities, they are not specialized sports shoes and may not provide the necessary support or protection for intense athletic activities.

How do I clean the vintage finish?

The vintage finish is intentionally part of the design. Clean the leather with a damp cloth and use a suede brush for suede parts. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could remove the intended worn effect.

What is the 'contrasting smiley on foxing' detail?

This refers to a subtle smile-like graphic integrated into the rubber sole (foxing) of the shoe, adding a playful and signature element.

What size should I choose if my child is between sizes?

Given the premium nature and fit, it is often recommended to try them on if possible. If not, consider the child's current shoe size and intended use; if they will be worn with thicker socks, a slightly larger size might be more comfortable.

Can the glitter star be cleaned?

Yes, the glitter star can be cleaned gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid excessive moisture or abrasive cleaning methods that could damage the glitter.

What is the main difference between this and other Super-Star models?

The key differences lie in the specific color combinations, accent materials (like this model's gold glitter star and silver heel tab), and the signature handmade vintage finish, which varies slightly on each pair.

Troubleshooting

Glitter is peeling off the star.

This is a natural characteristic of the handmade vintage finish. Gently brush the affected area with a soft cloth. Avoid picking at the glitter.

Suede tongue looks dirty or matted.

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner.

Leather appears scuffed.

Light scuffs on the leather can be part of the intended vintage look. For deeper scuffs, a leather conditioner or cream appropriate for white leather may help, but test on an inconspicuous area first.

Smell of new material.

The shoes are made from natural and synthetic materials. Allow them to air out in a well-ventilated area for a few days to dissipate any initial odors.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Leather: Wipe the leather parts with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking the material.
  • Suede Care: For the suede tongue and heel tab, use a specialized suede brush to gently remove dirt and maintain texture. For stains, use a suede cleaner following product instructions.
  • Glitter and Metallic Accents: Clean gently with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing that could dislodge glitter or damage metallic finishes.
  • Laces: Cream-coloured laces can be removed and hand-washed separately.
  • Sole: The rubber sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.
  • Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a dust bag to protect the materials and finish.
