FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Arvee 1.5 is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer and does not offer the technical support or breathability needed for long-distance running.
How do I determine the right size?
These trainers follow standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to choose the size you wear in other similar leather footwear brands.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives in the cupsole. Always clean them by hand.
What is a cupsole?
A cupsole is a type of shoe construction where the sole is molded into a single cup-like shape and then stitched or glued to the upper, providing superior durability and impact protection.
Do these shoes run wide or narrow?
The Arvee 1.5 is designed with a standard width fit. The lace-up closure allows for minor adjustments to accommodate different foot volumes.
Troubleshooting
Leather looks dull or loses its shine
Apply a high-quality leather conditioner to restore moisture and maintain the finish.
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure the laces are threaded through all eyelets and try a double-knot if necessary for a more secure hold.
Creasing in the leather near the toe box
This is a natural characteristic of leather footwear. Using shoe trees when not in use can help minimize deep creasing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your K-SWISS Arvee 1.5 trainers maintain their condition, follow these steps:
- Breaking In: Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the leather to soften and conform to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dust. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner or a slightly damp cloth with mild soap, then air dry away from direct heat sources.
- Protection: Apply a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray to guard against moisture and dirt.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the leather to fade or crack over time.
