FAQs
What material is the upper made of?

It provides enhanced cushioning, breathability, and comfort for all-day wear.
Are these trainers suitable for athletic activities?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and style. While comfortable, they are not intended for high-impact athletic performance. The suede material is also best kept away from intense physical activity that could lead to damage.
What does the 'HI' in Academy HI stand for?
The 'HI' likely refers to the high-top silhouette of this particular model, distinguishing it from lower-cut versions.
What is the purpose of the platform midsole?
The platform midsole adds height and a trendy aesthetic to the trainers, contributing to their stylish appearance.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the suede material and the construction of the trainers.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained
Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush. For tougher stains, use a suede-specific cleaning product and follow the product's instructions. Avoid using water.
Laces are difficult to tie or stay tied
Ensure laces are dry and not excessively worn. Consider replacing them if they are frayed. Double-knotting can also help secure the laces.
Insole feels less cushioned over time
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® may compress slightly with prolonged use. Try removing the insole and airing it out, or consider replacing the insole if significant comfort loss occurs.
Discoloration of the suede
Direct sunlight or prolonged exposure to moisture can cause discoloration. Store the trainers properly and avoid wearing them in heavy rain or direct sun for extended periods.
