FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for athletic sports?
While the America's Cup series is inspired by sailing, these trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear rather than high-intensity athletic performance.
How does the sizing compare to standard footwear?
These trainers generally follow standard European sizing conventions. We recommend checking the UK size conversion to ensure a precise fit for your foot length.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No. Machine washing will damage the patent leather finish and the structural integrity of the shoe. Manual cleaning is required.
What is the height of the sole?
The trainers feature a 40 mm rubber sole, providing a slightly elevated profile for added comfort and style.
Does the silver detailing fade over time?
If properly maintained and kept away from abrasive surfaces, the silver detailing is designed to maintain its color and finish for a long period.
Troubleshooting
Visible scuff marks on patent leather
Gently clean with a specialized patent leather cleaner and a soft cloth; avoid rubbing hard which can dull the finish.
Soles appearing dirty or discolored
Use a mild soap solution and a soft-bristled brush to gently scrub the rubber outsole, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
Creasing in the toe box area
Use wooden shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to help the leather retain its shape and minimize permanent creasing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your trainers, focus on proper material maintenance. Since the shoes incorporate patent leather, avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes that could strip the finish or cause micro-scratches. Wipe the exterior gently with a soft, slightly damp microfiber cloth after use to remove dust and debris. For deeper cleaning of the technical fabric portions, use a mild leather-safe cleaner diluted with water. Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the materials or crack the patent leather. Store in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees if possible to maintain the silhouette over time.
