FAQs

What materials are the Area Trainers made from?

The Area Trainers are crafted from premium buffed leather and recycled polyester canvas.

Are these trainers suitable for formal occasions?

While the trainers offer a refined look, they are best suited for casual and smart-casual occasions rather than formal events.

How should I clean the leather parts?

Gently wipe the leather with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner, following the product's instructions.

Do the trainers come with a dust bag?

Yes, the AXEL ARIGATO Area Trainers include a branded dust bag for storage and protection.

What is the fit like?

The trainers feature a standard fit. It is recommended to consult size guides and consider your usual footwear size. The lace-up system allows for adjustable snugness.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve their material and longevity.

How do I care for the canvas material?

The canvas can be cleaned by gently wiping with a damp cloth. For dirt, a soft brush or a mild soap solution can be used, followed by air drying.

Troubleshooting

Laces are difficult to adjust.

Ensure laces are not tangled and are threaded evenly through the eyelets. If laces are stiff, a slight stretch or replacement may be needed.

Minor scuffs on leather.

For light scuffs, try buffing gently with a soft, dry cloth. For more noticeable marks, use a leather conditioner or a matching color cream polish.

Canvas material appears dirty.

Gently spot clean the canvas with a slightly damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the material. Allow to air dry naturally.

Discomfort during initial wear.

This is common with new leather footwear. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in and mold to your feet. Ensure laces are correctly adjusted.
