FAQs
Are these sneakers suitable for running?
No, these are fashion-forward lifestyle trainers intended for casual walking and daily wear, not for athletic or high-intensity running.
How should I clean the textured sole?
Use a soft-bristled brush and mild soapy water to gently scrub the textures of the sole, then wipe dry with a clean cloth.
What is the best way to determine my size?
Rick Owens footwear generally follows standard sizing, but it is recommended to compare your foot length in centimeters against manufacturer size charts.
Can I wear these in rainy weather?
While the leather construction is durable, it is best to avoid heavy rain as prolonged moisture can damage the leather finish.
Do these sneakers break in over time?
Yes, as with most high-quality leather footwear, the material will soften and conform more closely to your foot shape after several wears.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the leather upper
Use wooden shoe trees when the shoes are stored to help the leather retain its shape and smooth out minor creases.
Difficulty maintaining the clean grey finish
Use a specialized leather cleaner for grey leather to remove scuffs, and apply a neutral leather cream to restore the luster.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Rick Owens trainers remain in peak condition, proper care is essential. Use a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dirt after each wear. For leather models, apply a high-quality leather conditioner periodically to prevent drying or cracking. Avoid exposing the shoes to excessive moisture or harsh chemicals. When not in use, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, preferably using shoe trees to help maintain the original structure and shape of the toe box.
