FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?

Can I put these in the washing machine?

What is the best way to clean the white leather?
Use a soft microfiber cloth and a dedicated leather shoe cleaner to gently wipe away surface debris.
Are these suitable for playing basketball?
While they are basketball trainers by heritage, modern performance shoes provide better technology for competitive play.
Does the shoe provide good arch support?
The internal cushioning provides comfort for casual daily wear, though it is not designed as an orthopedic support shoe.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming loose frequently
Use a double-knot technique or replace with standard performance laces for a more secure hold.
Creasing on the toe box
This is common with leather footwear; use sneaker shields or shoe trees when not in use to maintain the shape.
Dirty elephant print pattern
Use a soft toothbrush dipped in a mild soapy water solution to gently scrub the recessed areas of the print.
