The primary material is premium leather, contributing to its durability and classic appearance.

Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?

The EDR 78 is designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, inspired by vintage running shoes but not intended for high-impact athletic activities.

How do I clean the olive green leather?

Gently wipe the leather with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a specialized leather cleaner suitable for the color. Avoid excessive water and harsh chemicals.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight initially

Leather shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Consider using a shoe stretcher if persistent tightness is an issue.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

While designed to be non-slip, extreme conditions or highly polished surfaces might reduce grip. Ensure the soles are clean and free from debris. If the issue persists, consider a sole protector application.

Leather shows signs of wear or scuffing

Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, use a leather cleaner or repair kit appropriate for olive green leather. Regular conditioning can help prevent general wear.
