FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for skateboarding?

While based on skate silhouettes, the pearlised leather finish is more style-focused. For heavy-duty technical skating, standard suede or canvas models may be preferred.

How should I clean the white leather?

Wipe with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild leather-safe cleaner. Do not machine wash.

Do these run true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard adult sizing conventions. If you prefer a looser fit, you may consider a half-size up, but they are designed to fit securely.

Can I replace the insoles?

The insoles are designed for optimal comfort within the shoe, but if you require custom orthotics, they can usually be swapped out for your preferred inserts.

Is the leather water-resistant?

The leather is more water-resistant than fabric, but not waterproof. We recommend a leather protector spray if you intend to wear them in unpredictable weather.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff when new

Leather requires a break-in period. Wear them for short durations indoors to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot shape.

Visible scuffs on white leather

Use a specialized leather cleaner or a gentle wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive brushes that might dull the pearlised sheen.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable leather construction
  • Excellent grip provided by the rubber waffle outsole
  • Stylish pearlised finish adds a unique touch to the classic design
  • Comfortable for daily wear due to the cushioned insole

Cons

  • White colourway is prone to showing dirt and scuffs
  • Leather material may require a break-in period
  • Limited to specific aesthetic styles compared to traditional canvas options

Setup, Compatibility & Care

As these are low-top trainers, they pair well with various casual outfits, from cuffed denim to athletic shorts. To ensure longevity, keep the leather clean by wiping it with a damp cloth after exposure to dust or debris. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that may damage the pearlised finish. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources, which can cause the leather to stiffen or crack.
