FAQs
Are these sneakers suitable for men and women?
While this specific model is listed as Men's, the unisex design of the Oversized Sneaker often makes it suitable for women as well. Please refer to sizing charts for accurate fit.
How do I choose the correct UK size?
Refer to the product's size guide, which typically correlates UK sizes with EU and US measurements. It's recommended to measure your foot length for the most accurate selection.
What material is the shoe made of?
The main body of the sneaker is constructed from smooth calfskin leather, with a contrast rubber heel counter and an oversized rubber sole.
Can I wear these sneakers in wet weather?
While the leather can be treated for some water resistance, it is not recommended to wear these high-fashion sneakers in heavy rain or wet conditions as it can damage the leather and construction.
How do I clean the signature stamp on the sole?
The signature stamp on the sole can be cleaned gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh scrubbing that could wear away the design.
What is the benefit of the oversized sole?
The oversized sole provides a distinctive, modern aesthetic and adds significant cushioning, enhancing comfort for extended periods of wear.
How do I care for the contrast heel counter?
The contrast heel counter is made of rubber. It can be cleaned with a damp cloth or a mild detergent. Be careful not to scuff it against hard surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Scuff marks on the white leather
Gently clean with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner or a magic eraser very carefully, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Discoloration on the rubber sole
Use a magic eraser or a mild cleaning solution with a soft cloth to remove scuffs and marks from the rubber sole.
Laces fraying or becoming dirty
Replace the laces with the additional set provided. Clean the original laces separately by hand washing with mild soap and water.
Squeaking noise from the sole
This can sometimes occur with new rubber soles. Ensure the sole is clean and dry. If the issue persists, it may be an internal structural anomaly, though rare.

Care: To maintain the pristine condition of your white calfskin leather sneakers:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, use a dedicated leather cleaner sparingly. Avoid abrasive materials.
- Suede/Contrast Areas: Use a soft brush or a specialized cleaner for any suede or contrast rubber components, following product instructions.
- Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning. Hand wash with mild soap and water, or machine wash in a mesh bag on a gentle cycle.

- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in the original dust bag or shoebox to protect from dust and light. Stuff with tissue paper to maintain shape when not in use.
