Are these trainers suitable for sports?
These trainers are designed for everyday wear and casual comfort. They are not specifically engineered for strenuous athletic activities but offer good support for walking and daily movement.
How should I clean the leather parts of the trainers?
Gently wipe the leather with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner and allow to air dry away from direct heat.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, especially the leather blend and sole construction.

What does 'leather blend' mean in the description?
It indicates that the upper material is a mix of genuine leather (85%) and polyurethane (15%), combining the benefits of both materials for appearance and durability.
How do I care for the suede-effect heel insert?
Use a soft brush designed for suede or nubuck to maintain its texture. Avoid using water on this part of the trainer.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not overtightened. If the issue persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if the shoes require a short break-in period.
Leather creasing excessively
This is natural with genuine leather. To minimize deep creases, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use.
Discoloration on white material
For minor scuffs, try a specialized white shoe cleaner or a magic eraser gently. For stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner.
Suede-effect heel insert looks worn
Use a soft suede brush to gently restore the nap. Avoid getting this area wet.
