FAQs

Are these trainers true to size?

The Oversized Sneaker generally runs true to size. However, due to its slightly voluminous design, some customers prefer to size down if they are between sizes or have narrower feet.

How should I clean the suede heel counter?

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove dirt and restore the nap. For stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid using water on suede materials.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the rubber sole offers some protection, the premium leather and suede are not ideal for heavy rain or wet conditions. It is best to avoid wearing them in inclement weather to preserve their condition.

What is the main difference between this and other McQueen sneakers?

The 'Oversized Sneaker' is characterized by its distinctively chunky sole and overall larger silhouette, setting it apart from more streamlined models. This specific variant features a white leather upper with a tan suede heel counter.

How do I maintain the shine of the leather?

Regularly wipe the leather with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper cleaning and conditioning, use a quality leather cleaner and then a leather conditioner specifically designed for white leather.

Does it come with extra laces?

Yes, this model typically comes with an additional pair of laces, allowing for style variation or replacement.

What is the country of origin?

These Alexander McQueen sneakers are crafted in Italy, known for its high standards of footwear manufacturing.

Troubleshooting

Scuffs on leather

For minor scuffs, try using a leather conditioner or a white shoe cream. For deeper scuffs, consult a professional shoe repair service.

Suede heel counter discoloration

Use a suede eraser for light marks. Avoid using water on suede. For persistent stains, seek professional suede cleaning.

Rubber sole discoloration
