FAQs
Are these shoes water-resistant?
While the suede construction offers some protection, they are not waterproof and should not be worn in heavy rain.
How does the odor control work?
The nylon mesh sock lining features CLEANSPORT NXT, a pro-biotic treatment that naturally breaks down odor-causing bacteria.
Can I wash these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing will ruin the suede material and may damage the rubber outsole adhesive.
What is the outsole material?
They feature a T1555 rubber outsole designed for durability and traction.
Are these suitable for heavy hiking?
No, these are designed as lifestyle trainers for urban exploration, not for technical hiking or rough mountain terrain.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt or dust on the suede
Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift and remove surface particles.
Footbed feels less supportive over time
EVA foam can compress with heavy use; consider replacing with a fresh aftermarket insole if needed.
Laces coming untied frequently
Ensure the laces are double-knotted or replace them with higher-friction cotton-blend laces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers fit true to size for a standard UK 12. Since they are crafted from suede, it is recommended to apply a suede-specific water repellent spray before the first use to prevent staining. To clean, use a soft-bristled suede brush to remove dried dirt; for deeper stains, use a dedicated suede eraser or cleaning solution. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this will damage the suede fibers and compromise the structural integrity of the shoe.
