FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, these are designed as lifestyle trainers for casual daily wear, not for long-distance running or high-impact athletic performance.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
These trainers follow standard UK sizing; since they have a padded interior, you may find them to have a snug, secure fit.
Are these shoes made of genuine leather?
Yes, this specific model features a leather upper construction, which provides durability and a premium aesthetic.
Can I replace the insoles?
While the Cloudfoam cushioning is integrated into the midsole design, you can generally add a thin aftermarket insole if you require additional arch support.
How do I clean the white portions of the sole?
Use a mild soap solution and a soft-bristled brush to scrub the rubber outsole, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
Do these provide good arch support?
The Cloudfoam midsole provides a comfortable, neutral support level suitable for most foot types for everyday walking.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone frequently
The thick laces may require a double-knot until the material softens and breaks in.
Minor stiffness during the first few wears
Wear the trainers for shorter durations initially to allow the leather and padding to conform to your foot shape.
Surface scuffs on the leather
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft eraser to gently buff out scuffs and maintain the finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers come with thick laces designed for a secure, tight fit; adjust them to your preferred tension upon first wear to allow the padded tongue to settle against your foot. To maintain the leather upper, wipe away surface dirt with a soft, damp cloth after use. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents, as this can degrade the leather and the adhesive bonding the sole. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the materials. For long-term storage, keep them in a cool, dry place and use a shoe tree or stuffed paper to help them maintain their bulky shape.
