Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?

Troubleshooting
Leather appears dry or cracked
Apply a leather conditioning cream or spray specifically designed for leather footwear. Ensure regular application based on wear.
Stains on the shoe material
For leather, use a specialized leather cleaner. For any suede parts, use dry brushing or a specialized suede cleaner. For general marks, a slightly damp cloth may suffice.
Laces are dirty
Remove laces and wash them separately with mild soap and water. Allow them to dry completely before re-lacing.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the wild rubber soles are clean. While designed for grip, natural rubber can sometimes be less effective on extremely smooth or wet surfaces. Consider specific grip enhancers if this is a persistent issue.
