FAQs
What size should I order?
Refer to the size guide provided or consult the UK sizing information. These trainers are available in various UK sizes, including UK 9.5.
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
While comfortable for walking, these trainers are designed as fashion footwear and not specifically for athletic performance or sports.
How do I clean the white logo detail on the heel?
Gently wipe the white logo detail with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh scrubbing to prevent damage to the logo or the sole material.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
It is recommended to treat the leather with a waterproof spray before wearing in wet conditions. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may still affect the leather.
What is the heel and platform height?
The heel measures approximately 0.8 inches (2 cm) and the platform measures 0.6 inches (1.5 cm).
What material are the trainers made of?
The trainers are crafted from premium black leather.
How do I maintain the shine of the leather?
Regularly clean the trainers with a damp cloth and apply a suitable leather conditioner. A leather polish can also be used to restore shine.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing significantly
Creasing is natural with leather. Ensure proper fit and use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape. Avoid over-tightening laces.
Sole separation or damage
This is rare with quality footwear. If minor separation occurs, consult a cobbler. For significant damage, contact customer support for potential repair or replacement options.
Discoloration from scuffs or stains
Address scuffs and stains immediately with appropriate leather cleaning products. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first. Professional cleaning may be necessary for severe marks.
