These trainers elevate a casual look through premium sage and smooth suede construction, though they require diligent care due to the delicate nature of high-quality suede material. Featuring a durable rubber cupsole and a fully lined calf leather interior, the Porto range offers a refined alternative to standard athletic footwear that bridges the gap between smart-casual and relaxed everyday wear.

FAQs
Are these shoes water-resistant?
While the rubber cupsole is durable, the suede upper is naturally porous and should be treated with a protective spray to improve its resistance to light moisture.
Do I need to break these in?
While the leather lining and cushioned footbed provide immediate comfort, the structured upper may take 1-2 days of regular wear to mold perfectly to your foot shape.
Can I wear these for sports?
No, these are fashion trainers. The construction is optimized for style and everyday walking, not for high-impact sports or gym activities.
How do I clean the rubber cupsole?
Use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution to wipe the sides of the rubber sole. Avoid getting soap or water on the suede portion.
What is the sizing fit like?
The Porto trainers typically fit true to size. However, if you are between sizes, consider your preferred sock thickness as the leather lining provides a snug, secure feel.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or matted
Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently stroke the nap in one direction to restore its texture.
Minor scuffs on the suede
Gently rub the affected area with a rubber suede eraser to lift the mark without damaging the material.
Difficulty putting on the shoe
Ensure the laces are fully loosened; the padded tongue and collar are designed to hug the foot for security, which may feel tight initially before breaking in.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Porto trainers last, follow these care guidelines:
- Initial Protection: Use a high-quality suede protector spray before wearing the shoes for the first time to create a barrier against water and dirt.
- Cleaning: If the suede becomes dusty, use a dedicated suede brush to lift the nap and remove particles. For light marks, a suede eraser is recommended.
- Storage: Always store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the sage/brown pigment over time. Use shoe trees to help maintain the shape of the toe cap and prevent creasing.
- Moisture Control: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Never place them directly on a radiator or near a heat source, as this will cause the leather and suede to stiffen and crack.
