FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for professional sports?

While inspired by basketball, these are designed as lifestyle trainers for everyday use, not as performance basketball shoes.

Do these run true to size?

Yes, the Centennial 85 High is designed to fit standard UK sizing accurately.

Can I remove the insoles?

The insoles are typically removable if you need to insert custom orthotics.

How do I maintain the grey and silver colour?

Keep them clean and dry. Use a protective spray designed for trainers to help repel dirt and moisture.

Are these shoes unisex?

While this specific variant is listed for males, the design is highly versatile and fits anyone seeking the listed UK size.

Troubleshooting

The trainers feel stiff during the first wear.

This is normal for high-top leather-based trainers. Wear them for short durations indoors to help the materials conform to your feet.

Scuff marks on the silver detailing.

Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a very gentle eraser to buff out light scuffs, taking care not to rub too hard on the metallic finish.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Classic retro-basketball aesthetic
  • Enhanced ankle stability due to high-top silhouette
  • Versatile colour scheme for easy outfit matching
  • Sturdy construction quality

Cons

  • High-top design may feel restrictive to some users
  • Requires break-in time for optimal comfort
  • Less breathable than lightweight running trainers

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Centennial 85 High trainers maintain their appearance, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the silver accents.
  2. Drying: Always air dry at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the material.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading.
  4. Compatibility: These trainers fit true to size. Ensure you wear appropriate hosiery to match the high-top cut for maximum comfort during the first few wears.
