FAQs
What materials are used in these shoes?

How do I properly clean the metallic and crocodile-textured surfaces?
Gently wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. For specific guidance, always refer to the care instructions on the product label and consider specialized leather cleaners for delicate finishes.
Are these shoes suitable for all weather conditions?
These shoes are best suited for dry conditions. Exposure to heavy rain or moisture should be limited to protect the leather and unique textures. Consider a protective spray designed for leather if needed.
What occasions are these shoes designed for?
They are designed to make a statement, suitable for various social outings such as brunches, casual gatherings, and nights out where a fashionable and distinctive look is desired.
What does 'Wales Bonner' signify in the product name?
Wales Bonner indicates a collaboration with the acclaimed fashion designer Grace Wales Bonner, part of a special collection that blends adidas' iconic sportswear with her unique design aesthetic.
How do I prevent creasing in the leather?
While some natural creasing is expected with leather, using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain the shoe's shape and minimize excessive creasing. Proper sizing also plays a role.
Troubleshooting
Scuffs or marks appear on the metallic or textured leather.
Gently wipe the affected area with a soft, clean, damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a leather conditioner or cleaner specifically formulated for metallic or exotic leathers, testing first on an inconspicuous spot.
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
Leather shoes often require a breaking-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow the leather to soften and mold to your feet. Ensure you have the correct size.
Shoes appear dull or lose their metallic sheen.
After cleaning, you can gently buff the metallic areas with a very soft, dry cloth to restore some shine. Ensure no cleaning residues remain. Consider specialized leather polishes for metallic finishes if applicable and recommended by the care label.
Slipping on smooth surfaces.
While the rubber sole provides good traction, extreme conditions or highly polished floors can still be slippery. Check the sole for excessive wear. If issues persist, consider adding aftermarket sole grips.
