FAQs
How do I determine the correct size?
These trainers are listed in UK adult male sizing. Polo Ralph Lauren footwear typically runs true to size. If you are unsure, it is always recommended to consult a brand-specific size chart or try them on to ensure the best fit.
Are these trainers suitable for sports or athletic activities?
While taking design cues from classic court shoes, these Master Court Trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and comfort, not for performance sports or intense athletic activities. Their construction prioritizes style and everyday comfort.
What is the best way to clean the chunky rubber sole?
You can clean the rubber sole using a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. For tougher grime, a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) can be used to scrub the tread, then wipe clean.
Can I wear these trainers in rainy weather?
The premium leather offers some natural water resistance, but these trainers are not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended. For added protection, you can apply a suitable leather protector spray.
What kind of socks should I wear with these trainers?
To maximize comfort and breathability, we recommend wearing quality cotton or performance blend socks that wick away moisture. The choice of ankle height (no-show, ankle, or crew) depends on your personal style preference and the outfit.
Are replacement laces available?

Troubleshooting
Leather appears dull or dry.
Clean the trainers thoroughly, then apply a quality leather conditioner to moisturize and restore the leather's natural luster.
Squeaking sound when walking.
Remove the insole and sprinkle a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe to reduce friction between the insole and the shoe body.
Trainers feel stiff initially.
This is common with new leather. Wear them for short periods around the house to allow the leather to naturally soften and conform to your foot shape.
Minor scuffs or marks on the leather.
For light marks, gently buff with a soft cloth. For more noticeable scuffs, use a leather cream or neutral shoe polish in conjunction with a soft cloth, then buff.
Foot odor.
Ensure you wear breathable socks. Remove insoles occasionally to air out the shoes. Consider using shoe deodorizers or cedar shoe trees.

Care Instructions
To ensure the longevity and pristine appearance of your premium leather trainers, follow these care steps:
- Wipe Down Regularly: After each wear, gently wipe the leather uppers with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt and dust.
- Deep Cleaning: For more stubborn dirt, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft brush or cloth. Follow the product's instructions carefully.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner every few weeks or months (depending on wear) to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. This also helps maintain its natural sheen.
- Drying: If your trainers get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners.
