FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?
While stylish and comfortable, ALOHAS Rife Trainers are designed for casual wear and fashion purposes, not for athletic performance or high-impact sports. They are best suited for everyday use.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?
It is not recommended to wear these trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions due to the 100% suede upper. Suede can be easily damaged by water. Always apply a suede protector spray for light moisture resistance.
How do I clean the white accents on the trainers?
For the white accents, use a soft cloth dampened with a mild soap solution. Gently wipe the affected areas. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the surrounding suede.
What is the best way to store my ALOHAS Rife Trainers?
Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees or stuffing them with acid-free paper can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
Do these trainers fit true to size?
ALOHAS trainers generally fit true to UK sizing. We recommend selecting your usual UK shoe size for the best fit. If you are between sizes, consider trying the next half size up for comfort.
Are the materials ethically sourced?

Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty.
Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap. For stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner sparingly.
Trainers feel uncomfortable or too tight.
Ensure you have the correct UK size. Re-adjust the laces, ensuring they are snug but not constricting. Allow for a short break-in period as leather lining can adapt slightly to your foot shape.
Soles feel slippery.
Clean the gum rubber soles thoroughly with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that might be reducing traction. Check for excessive wear on the tread.
Color appears faded or uneven.
The vibrant red suede can sometimes appear different under varying lighting conditions. For actual fading, specialized suede color restorers are available, but proceed with caution and test on an inconspicuous area first. Ensure proper storage away from prolonged direct sunlight.

Care Instructions
Caring for your ALOHAS Rife Trainers is essential due to the suede and leather components.
- Suede Protection: Before first wear and periodically thereafter, apply a suede protector spray to guard against water and stains.
