FAQs

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is primarily made of calf hair, with leather trim.

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

The BallStar trainers have a streamlined profile. While the lace-up closure allows for some adjustability, they are generally designed for standard width feet. It is recommended to try them on if possible.

How should I clean the calf hair material?

Gently brush with a soft brush. For stains, use a specialized cleaner for calf hair or suede, testing in an inconspicuous area first. Avoid excessive moisture.

Do these trainers come with a dust bag?

Yes, they include a dust bag and a shoe box for protection and storage.

Are these trainers waterproof?

These trainers are not designed to be waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain.

What is the recommended care for the rubber sole?

The rubber sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Mild soap can be used for tougher dirt, ensuring the shoe is dried thoroughly afterward.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear these trainers in heavy wet weather as they are not waterproof and the calf hair material can be sensitive to moisture.

Troubleshooting

Calf hair appears matted or dirty.

Gently brush the calf hair with a soft brush in the direction of the nap. For stains, use a specialized cleaner for calf hair or suede, following product instructions carefully and testing on a small area first. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before wearing or storing.

Laces are worn or dirty.

Clean the laces with a mild detergent and water, or replace them with new laces of a similar length and material for a fresh look.

Sole shows signs of wear.

Regularly clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth. For significant wear, consult a professional shoe repair service for potential sole replacement or reinforcement.

Leather trim is scuffed.

Minor scuffs on the leather trim can sometimes be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper scuffs, a leather conditioner or repair kit suitable for the leather's color may be necessary. Professional repair is recommended for significant damage.
