FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for playing tennis?
While inspired by tennis heritage, these trainers are primarily designed for casual wear. For competitive tennis, specific performance footwear with advanced support and traction is recommended.
How do I determine the correct size?
These trainers are listed in UK adult male sizing. It's recommended to measure your foot and compare it to standard UK sizing charts. Trying them on in person is the most reliable method if possible.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, adhesives, and overall structure of the trainers.
What is the material of the trainers?
The upper is primarily made of leather, and the outsole is made of durable rubber.
Are these trainers waterproof?
These trainers are not waterproof. They offer some resistance to light moisture but are not designed for use in wet conditions.
How should I care for the white leather?
Gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Use a clean, dry cloth for drying. Consider a leather conditioner specifically for white leather to maintain its appearance.
What is the main advantage of the perforations?
The perforations are designed to improve air circulation, helping to keep your feet cooler and more comfortable during wear.
Troubleshooting
Tread wearing down quickly
Ensure you are not using the trainers for activities that cause excessive abrasion. Clean the outsole regularly to remove trapped debris that could accelerate wear. Consider using them primarily for casual wear as intended.
Leather creasing excessively
Leather naturally creases with wear. To minimize deep creases, ensure the shoes fit properly and use shoe trees when storing them. Avoid over-tightening laces.
Discomfort around the ankle
Ensure laces are not tied too tightly. The padded cuff should provide comfort; if irritation persists, consider wearing thicker socks or breaking the shoes in gradually with shorter wear periods.
Reduced grip on slippery surfaces
The rubber outsole provides textured grip, but its effectiveness can be reduced by moisture or debris. Clean the outsole regularly. For extremely slippery conditions, consider trainers with specialized grip patterns if needed.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. For the outsole, use a brush to remove debris.
