FAQs

What material are the Balmain B-Court Sneakers made of?

The sneakers are primarily made of 100% calf leather (Bos Taurus) for the upper, with a leather lining, leather insole, and a 100% rubber outsole.

How do I determine my correct size?

The B-Court Sneakers run true to size based on French (FR) sizing. It is recommended to consult a sizing chart or try them on if possible, especially considering the FR sizing system.

Are these sneakers suitable for wide feet?

The sneakers have an almond toe shape and are designed for a standard fit. They are true to size in FR sizing. If you have significantly wide feet, they may not provide adequate comfort.

What is the sole height of these sneakers?

The sole height of the Balmain B-Court Sneakers is 3.5 cm.

Can I wear these sneakers in wet weather?

While the rubber outsole offers some protection, the calfskin upper is best kept dry. It is recommended to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and to treat the leather with a water-repellent spray for added protection.

How should I clean the white leather and contrasting logo?

Clean the white leather with a soft, damp cloth. For the contrasting printed logo, use a very gentle wiping motion with a slightly damp cloth, avoiding excessive rubbing to prevent damage.

What is the purpose of the double laces?

The double laces are a design element that offers a unique aesthetic. They function the same way as standard laces to secure the shoe.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears creased or wrinkled

Minor creasing is natural with genuine leather. Ensure proper fit to minimize excessive creasing. Stuff shoes with tissue paper when not in use to help maintain shape.

Difficulty lacing shoes evenly

Ensure the laces are threaded through the eyelets without being too tight. Adjust the tension on both sides of the laces gradually for a balanced fit.

Outsole scuffs or marks

Light scuffs on the rubber outsole can often be cleaned with a damp cloth or a specialized rubber cleaner. For tougher marks, a magic eraser can be used gently.

Discomfort from the insole

The leather insole is designed to mold to your foot over time. If immediate discomfort persists, consider using thin, supportive insoles designed for leather shoes, ensuring they do not alter the shoe's fit significantly.
