These trainers are designed for comfort and style in everyday wear. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact athletic activities like running.
How do I clean the leather exterior?
Clean the leather exterior with a specialized leather cleaner or a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or soaking the shoes.
Can I remove the insole?
Yes, the insole is removable, which allows for easier cleaning or the insertion of custom orthotics.
What kind of support do these trainers offer?
They offer good support through a highly cushioned midsole and a padded construction, providing all-day comfort for casual wear.

Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot if necessary. Consider replacing laces if they are worn or slippery.
Discomfort in the heel area
Ensure the shoe fits correctly. If discomfort persists, the padded edges might need a short breaking-in period, or consider using an alternative insole.
Leather creasing excessively
Normal for genuine leather; use shoe trees to help maintain shape when not in use. Avoid over-flexing the shoe during wear.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. While designed for traction, some very smooth or wet surfaces may naturally reduce grip.
