FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?

How should I clean the leather upper?
Use a damp, soft cloth to wipe away surface dirt and follow up with a dry cloth; use leather-specific products for deeper cleaning.
Are these unisex?

Does the sizing run true to standard UK sizes?
Yes, these shoes are sized according to standard UK adult sizing, specifically the 8 UK variant mentioned.
How do I prevent the leather from creasing?
Using a shoe tree when the shoes are not being worn can help maintain their shape and minimize deep creasing.
Can the insoles be removed?
While the shoes are designed for optimal comfort, the internal components are fixed to maintain the structural integrity of the silhouette.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels stiff upon first wear
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the leather to naturally conform to your foot shape.
Loss of shine on metal logo/eyelets
Use a specialized jewelry or metal polishing cloth to gently buff the nickel-plated components.
Accumulation of debris in outsole grooves
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently dislodge dirt from the grooves to maintain optimal traction.
