FAQs

Are these sneakers suitable for wide feet?

The Oversized Sneaker generally accommodates a standard width. While the upper is leather and can offer some give, individuals with exceptionally wide feet may find them snug. Trying them on or consulting size guides is recommended.

How do I clean the crystal embellishments?

Gently wipe the crystal-embellished heel counter with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive pressure on the crystals to prevent damage.

Do these sneakers come with a dust bag?

No, to lessen environmental impact and reduce cotton consumption, Alexander McQueen no longer provides a dust bag with their sneakers.

Can I wear these for sports or heavy physical activity?

These are fashion sneakers designed for style and comfort in everyday wear. They are not intended for rigorous sports or athletic activities.

How does the sizing run for these trainers?

The sizing is generally considered true to size for a sneaker fit. However, due to the nature of the oversized sole, some users may prefer to try a half size up or down for optimal comfort. Referencing a specific size chart is advised.

What material is the sneaker made from?

The main body of the sneaker is made from smooth calf leather, with an oversized rubber sole and black crystal embellishments on the heel counter.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dull or dirty

Clean with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner for smooth leather, always testing on a small, hidden area first.

Crystals feel loose or are missing

Contact customer support or a reputable cobbler specializing in luxury footwear for repair options. Avoid excessive force or friction on the embellished area.

Oversized sole feels too heavy or cumbersome

Allow for a break-in period. Wear the shoes for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time as your feet adjust to the sole's structure and weight.

Shoelaces are difficult to tie or keep tied

Ensure laces are threaded evenly and tied securely. If the original laces are slippery, consider replacing them with textured laces for better grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These sneakers require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. You may choose to swap the included white shoelaces for the additional pair provided, or use your own to customize the look.

Compatibility:

The Oversized Sneaker is designed for adult wear and pairs well with a wide range of casual and smart-casual attire. They are suitable for most foot types, though individuals preferring minimalist footwear might find the sole's volume significant.

Care Instructions:

  • Leather: Clean the smooth calf leather with a soft, damp cloth. For stains, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for smooth leather, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
  • Crystal Embellishments: Avoid harsh scrubbing on the crystal-embellished heel counter. Gently wipe with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth.
  • Sole: Wipe the oversized rubber sole with a damp cloth. Stubborn dirt may require a mild soap solution.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. To protect the leather, consider using shoe trees. As dust bags are no longer provided, a soft cloth or an old pillowcase can be used for protection.
