FAQs

What is the primary material of these trainers?

The primary upper material is suede, and the outsole is made of natural rubber.

Are these trainers suitable for playing handball?

While inspired by handball shoes, they are best suited for casual wear and lifestyle activities due to their vintage design and materials.

How should I clean the suede upper?

Use a suede brush for regular cleaning. For tougher spots, a slightly damp cloth and air drying are recommended. Avoid soaking the shoes.

What does 'regular fit' mean?

Regular fit indicates a standard width and volume, designed to accommodate most adult foot shapes comfortably.

How do I ensure I get the correct size?

It is advised to try the shoes on indoors to confirm the fit, as the box or label may show different sizing systems (e.g., EU/US) than the UK size purchased.

What is the benefit of the natural rubber outsole?

The natural rubber outsole provides durability and reliable traction for everyday walking and general use.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

Suede is not ideal for wet conditions. It is recommended to protect the shoes with a suede protector spray and avoid wearing them in heavy rain.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels incorrect.

Check the UK size against the EU/US size indicated on the box or label. Try on indoors to confirm fit before full use.

Suede material shows dirt or marks.

Use a dedicated suede brush to clean. For stubborn marks, lightly dampen a cloth and gently wipe, then allow to air dry completely.

Traction seems reduced.

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean of debris. For persistent issues, the natural rubber may show wear over time with extensive use.
