FAQs
Are these sneakers suitable for running?
The Timberland UNION WHARF 2.0 EK+ sneakers are designed for casual wear and light activities, offering excellent comfort and support for walking. They are not specifically engineered for high-impact running or intensive athletic performance.
What does 'EK+' stand for?
EK+ signifies Timberland's Earthkeepers® Edition, indicating products made with a commitment to environmental responsibility through the use of eco-conscious materials and practices.
What is Refibra technology?
Refibra technology is an innovative process used by Tencel Lyocell where cotton scraps from garment production are upcycled with wood pulp to produce new virgin Tencel Lyocell fibers. This reduces waste and uses less water and energy.
Can I machine wash these sneakers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the sneakers. Please follow the spot cleaning and air-drying instructions for care.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Timberland UNION WHARF 2.0 EK+ sneakers are not waterproof. While they offer good breathability, they are best suited for dry conditions. Exposure to heavy rain should be avoided to maintain their integrity and comfort.
How do I know if the UK size 6.5 will fit me?
It's best to measure your foot length and compare it to a Timberland size chart if available, or try them on to ensure the best fit. Footwear sizing can sometimes vary between brands and models.
Troubleshooting
My feet feel hot or sweaty.
While the mesh lining is highly breathable, individual foot temperature can vary. Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking socks. You can also remove the insoles and let the shoes air out regularly after use.
The sneakers feel too tight or loose.
Double-check your UK shoe size. While the listed size is 6.5, fit can vary slightly between models and individuals. Adjust lacing for a more customized fit. If discomfort persists, consider trying a different size or width if available.
The sneakers are developing an odor.
Regularly air out your sneakers after each wear. Remove the insoles to allow them to dry fully. For persistent odors, use shoe deodorizers or a light sprinkle of baking soda inside the shoes overnight (remove before wearing).
Stains on the eco-conscious upper are difficult to remove.
For stubborn stains, a gentle scrub with a soft brush and a mixture of mild soap (like dish soap) and water can be effective. Always test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.

Care Instructions
To maintain the quality and longevity of your sneakers, follow these care guidelines:
- Spot Cleaning: For minor dirt or stains on the upper, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Mesh Lining: To clean the mesh interior, use a soft brush or cloth with a small amount of mild soap and water. Allow to air dry completely.
- Drying: Always air dry your sneakers at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage materials.

- Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
