FAQs
Are these shoes water-resistant?
No, the suede upper is porous and should be kept away from water and wet weather to prevent damage.
Are these suitable for running?
While inspired by 2000s running shoes, the 880R is optimized for lifestyle and daily walking comfort rather than high-performance running.
How should I clean the white suede?
Use a specialized suede brush or a dry eraser specifically designed for suede to gently remove scuffs and dirt.
Is this a unisex shoe?
Yes, the 880R series is designed with a unisex fit, making it suitable for both men and women.
Can I remove the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are generally removable if you wish to insert custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on the suede upper
Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently lift dirt; avoid using water directly on the suede.
Creasing near the toe box
Use shoe trees when not wearing to help the material retain its shape and reduce permanent creasing.
Loss of cushion bounce
Ensure the insoles are properly positioned; if worn out, consider replacing with generic supportive inserts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your 880R trainers, it is essential to follow proper care protocols. Since the upper is constructed from suede, avoid exposure to harsh weather conditions. If they get wet, air-dry them away from direct heat sources to prevent material stiffening. For cleaning, use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt and a specialized suede cleaner if stains occur. To maintain the fit, ensure you are utilizing the correct UK size, as the structure is engineered for a secure, supportive feel.
