FAQs

How do I know if the UK 12.5 size will fit?

How should I care for the leather upper?

Wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth for general cleaning. For more specific care or stain removal, use products designed for leather and always test on a small, hidden area first.

Troubleshooting

Unusual odor

Ensure trainers are completely dry. Use baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors, or use a shoe deodorizer spray.

Squeaking noise

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try sprinkling talcum powder under the insole or checking for loose stitching.

Discoloration on leather

Use a damp cloth for regular cleaning. For stubborn marks, consult a leather care product guide for appropriate cleaning methods and test on an inconspicuous area first.
