FAQs

What does 'OG' stand for in the product name?

'OG' stands for 'Original Gangster', commonly used in sneaker culture to refer to the first or original version of a shoe model.

Are these shoes suitable for running or athletic performance?

The LA Trainer OG are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer comfort, they do not possess the advanced features for high-performance athletic activities.

How do I ensure I get the right fit?

Refer to the size guide provided by the retailer. The product information indicates this is a UK Size 13, designed for adult males. It's recommended to measure your foot and compare it to the brand's sizing chart.

What is the material of the upper?

The upper is primarily made of premium suede, with synthetic materials used for the 3-Stripes and other accents.

How does the 'Made in USA' aspect influence the shoe?

The 'Made in USA' designation refers to the heritage and craftsmanship associated with its original production. The description notes these are a nod to the past, meticulously reshaped to mirror early models.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

While the rubber outsole offers some protection, suede is not ideal for heavy rain. It's best to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions to preserve the material.

What is the difference between suede and leather versions?

The upper material is primarily suede for this specific model, offering a softer, more textured feel. Other variants might use leather, which typically offers a smoother finish and different care requirements.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner according to product instructions.

Creasing on the upper

Natural creasing is normal with footwear. To minimize severe creasing, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees for storage.

Outsole feels slippery

Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. If the slipperiness persists, it may be due to wear on the tread pattern. For persistent issues on smooth surfaces, consider a specialized footwear treatment for grip.
