FAQs
How do I know if I should size down?
The product description advises that if you typically wear a size between two standard sizes (e.g., a UK 5.5), you should opt for the smaller size (UK 5).
Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?
The ALOHAS Tb. 490 Club Trainers are designed for casual fashion wear and offer comfort for everyday activities. They are not specifically engineered for athletic performance or high-impact sports.
How should I clean the suede material?
Gently brush the suede with a suede brush to remove dust. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner or a slightly damp cloth, and always allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
What is the main design feature of the Tb. 490 Club?
The signature feature is the long tongue, which folds over the instep, reminiscent of vintage football boots, combined with premium suede and contrasting finishes.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While a suede protector spray can offer some water resistance, suede is best kept away from heavy rain or moisture. If they get wet, allow them to dry naturally.
What are the primary colors of this trainer model?
The primary color is raspberry suede, with contrasting details that can be burgundy, red, or brown depending on the specific variant.
Do these trainers have good arch support?
These trainers offer standard support suitable for casual wear. They are not designed with specialized orthopedic features. For enhanced support, consider using insoles.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels too tight or loose.
Refer to the sizing guide and the recommendation to choose the smaller size if you are between sizes. If the issue persists, consider exchanging for a different size.
Suede material looks dull or dirty.
Use a suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product instructions.
Color transfer from contrasting parts (e.g., burgundy to pink suede).
This is uncommon but possible. Ensure the shoes are fully dry before wear. If transfer occurs, try spot cleaning with a suede cleaner on the affected area.
Soles feel slippery.
New shoes can sometimes have a slippery sole. Gently scuff the soles on a rough surface like concrete or use a fine-grit sandpaper to increase traction. Ensure the surface is clean.

Care: As these trainers are made from suede, proper care is essential to maintain their appearance and longevity.
- Suede Brush: Regularly use a suede brush to remove surface dirt and restore the nap of the material. Brush in one direction.

- Spot Cleaning: For minor marks, use a specialized suede cleaner or a slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking the material.
