FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the Gazelle silhouette is rooted in sport, this specific 'Pony Hair' variant is primarily designed for style and comfort during everyday wear. It is not recommended for intense athletic training or long-distance running.

How do I clean the pony hair material?

Gently brush away loose dirt with a soft brush. For stains, spot clean carefully with a slightly damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner. Avoid over-wetting the pony hair.

What is the primary material of these trainers?

The trainers feature a combination of genuine leather for the upper and lining, with distinctive accents made from genuine pony hair. The outsole is rubber.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear these trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions, as the pony hair and leather materials are sensitive to moisture and can be damaged or discolored.

What makes the Wales Bonner collaboration special?

The Wales Bonner collaboration elevates the classic Gazelle with luxurious materials like pony hair, unique design details such as rope laces, and a sophisticated color palette, blending sportswear heritage with high-fashion aesthetics.

How do I maintain the leather parts of the shoe?

Periodically clean the leather with a soft, damp cloth and apply a good quality leather conditioner to keep the material hydrated and prevent cracking.

What does 'Cold Cement Construction' mean for durability?

Cold cement construction is a method used to attach the sole to the upper, which generally results in a durable and flexible bond, contributing to the shoe's longevity.

Troubleshooting

Pony hair appears matted or dirty

Gently brush the pony hair with a soft brush in the direction of the hair. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized pony hair cleaner or a very lightly damp cloth with a mild soap, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Leather creasing excessively

This is a natural sign of wear with leather. Ensure the shoes fit correctly. Using shoe trees when not in use can help minimize creasing. Condition the leather regularly to keep it supple.

Gum sole scuff marks

Try using a magic eraser or a specialized sole cleaner designed for rubber soles. Gently rub the affected area.

Discoloration from wetness

Avoid wearing in heavy rain. If they get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuff with paper to absorb internal moisture.

Care:

  • Soles: Clean the gum soles with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a specialized sole cleaner can be used.
