FAQs
What material are these trainers made of?
These trainers are crafted from bonded leather on the outer, with a vulcanised rubber sole and a moulded foam footbed.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and offer comfort for walking. They are not intended for high-impact athletic activities like running.
How should I clean the white leather upper?
Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a cleaner specifically formulated for white leather. Always test cleaners on a small, hidden area first.
What does 'vulcanised rubber sole' mean?
Vulcanisation is a process that strengthens rubber by heating it with sulfur. It results in a durable, flexible, and long-lasting sole commonly found on trainers.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage and keep them clean.
What is the heel height?
The heel height is flat, providing a stable and comfortable base for casual wear.
Does the shoe have good arch support?
The trainers feature an ergonomic moulded foam footbed, which is designed for flexibility and comfort, offering moderate support suitable for casual wear.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight
Wear with thin socks initially. Leather can stretch slightly with wear. If still too tight, consider the next half-size up if available.
Scuff marks on leather
For minor scuffs, try a leather conditioner or a specialized leather cleaner. For deeper marks, consult a professional shoe repair service.
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. It may resolve with wear. Ensure laces are tied correctly and not too tight, which can sometimes cause friction.
Discoloration on white leather
Clean immediately with a damp cloth. Use a mild leather cleaner designed for white footwear. Avoid exposure to excessive direct sunlight which can cause yellowing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
These trainers require no setup as they are ready to wear out of the box. They are compatible with most casual attire. To care for your white bonded leather trainers:
- Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains on the leather, use a dedicated leather cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Suede/Nubuck (if applicable to specific detailing): Use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt and maintain texture.
- Sole Care: Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Ensure it is dry before wearing.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box, to prevent dust and maintain shape. Avoid direct sunlight.
- Protection: Consider using a leather protectant spray suitable for the material to guard against water and stains.
