FAQs
What is the T500 originally designed for?
The T500 was originally launched in 1982 and designed to provide superior quality for versatile track running styles.
Is this shoe suitable for professional athletic competition?
The new version of the T500 is designed more for leisure running and everyday wear than for competition. While comfortable, it may not offer the specialized support required for intense athletic events.
What materials are used in the T500 trainers?
The upper construction features suede and nubuck leather, offering a premium feel and aesthetic.
How should I clean the leather and suede parts of the trainers?
Use a soft brush for surface dirt. For leather, use a leather cleaner and damp cloth. For suede, use a specialized suede cleaner and brush. Always allow to air dry naturally.
Are these trainers good for wide feet?
The product description does not specify width options. It's recommended to check sizing guides or try them on if possible, as fit can vary.
What is the main color of the trainers?
The trainers feature a dominant white color scheme with brown and secondary white accents.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to maintain their material integrity and appearance.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or loose
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try adjusting the laces for a more customized fit. If the issue persists, consider exchanging for a different size if possible.
Squeaking noise when walking
This can sometimes occur due to friction within the shoe or with the sole. Try wearing thicker socks, or apply a small amount of talcum powder inside the shoe where the insole meets the sole.
Discoloration on suede or leather
For suede, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner. For leather, use a leather cleaner and conditioner. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.
Soles feel stiff
New shoes often require a breaking-in period. Wear them for short periods initially to allow the sole to become more flexible with use.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning Leather and Suede: Use a soft brush or a dry cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains on leather, use a leather cleaner with a damp cloth. Suede areas should be treated with a specialized suede cleaner and brush. Avoid soaking the trainers in water.
- Drying: If the trainers become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe box or dust bag, to maintain their shape and protect the materials.
