FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

The Lacoste Umpire trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer good grip, they are not engineered for high-impact athletic performance.

How do I determine the correct size?

These trainers are noted as a true-to-size fit with a standard fit. It is recommended to refer to Lacoste's sizing chart or try them on if possible to ensure the best fit.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the rubber outsole offers some protection, suede is not ideal for very wet conditions. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and ensure they are properly cared for if they do get wet.

What is the material of the outsole?

The outsole is made of robust, high-grip rubber, designed for durability and traction.

How do I clean the metal croc signet?

The metal croc signet can typically be wiped clean with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the metal.

Are there other color options available?

While this guide focuses on the brown variant, other colorways may be available depending on the retailer and season. Please check product listings for available options.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush to restore its texture and remove superficial dirt. For tougher stains, use a suede eraser.

Traction feels reduced

Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove any debris or mud that might be affecting grip.

Laces are wearing out

Replace laces with a similar style and length. Standard shoe laces are readily available.

  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box to protect the suede.
