FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, these are classified as lifestyle trainers. While durable, they lack the lightweight properties and technical support required for long-distance running.
How do I maintain the white details?
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution and a soft brush to target white areas specifically, ensuring you do not transfer dirt from the black leather onto the white parts.
Do these run true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to standard adult UK sizing, though the internal structure is quite structured.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The structure is somewhat narrow; users with wide feet may find the cross-straps require a slightly looser setting for comfort.
How often should I clean the leather?
Wipe them down after every use to prevent dirt buildup, and perform a deep clean with leather cleaner every month, depending on usage.
Troubleshooting
Leather looks dull after heavy wear
Apply a high-quality leather conditioner to restore moisture and luster.
Creasing in the toe box
Use shoe trees when not in use to help the leather maintain its shape and minimize deep-set creases.
Straps feel loose
Ensure the velcro is clean of lint and dust; clean the fasteners if necessary to ensure a strong closure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, ensure you select your standard UK size, as the leather upper offers limited stretch. Before the first wear, consider applying a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray to keep the black-and-white finish looking fresh. To clean, use a soft-bristle brush to remove surface debris and a damp cloth with mild soap for the leather panels; avoid using a washing machine, which can compromise the glue and leather integrity. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking over time.
