FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?

Are these suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, they are engineered for comfort and support, making them appropriate for walking and standing for long durations.
Can I replace the insoles?

What does the 992 series offer compared to other trainers?
The 992 series is known for its heritage craftsmanship and specific comfort profile that combines a structured leather build with classic aesthetic appeal.
Troubleshooting
The shoes feel too snug upon arrival
Leather can require a short break-in period; try wearing them for short intervals indoors to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot.
Difficulty determining the correct size
Measure both feet as one may be slightly larger than the other. Always choose the size based on the larger foot and remember that if you are between sizes, sizing up is generally recommended.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Classic, iconic design that works well with most wardrobes
- High-quality leather materials ensure long-term durability
- Well-engineered support suitable for daily use
- Available in a refined grey colour palette
Cons
- Leather material may require a break-in period for maximum comfort
- Limited to casual use rather than high-intensity sports
- Sizing can be precise, requiring careful measurement before purchase
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure a perfect fit, measure your foot length from your heel to the tip of your longest toe. If your foot measurement falls between two standard sizes, it is recommended to select the larger size to avoid discomfort.
Care Instructions:
- Keep the leather clean by wiping away dust and debris with a soft, dry cloth.
- Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the leather and internal adhesives.
- If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the leather to crack.
- Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain the structural integrity of the silhouette.
