What material is the upper made of?

Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?
No, these trainers are designed for casual wear and fashion. The platform height and construction are not suitable for intense physical activity or sports.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Adjust the laces to achieve a snug but comfortable fit. Ensure your heel is secure and there is enough room in the toe box. Use the heel pull tab for easy on and off.
Can I wash these trainers?
Washing is not recommended. Spot clean the leather with a specialized cleaner and the sole with a damp cloth. Avoid immersing the shoes in water.
What is the main style inspiration for these shoes?

Troubleshooting
Laces seem too short or too long
Adjust the lacing pattern or consider replacing the laces with a different length if the standard ones do not provide an optimal fit.
Discomfort due to platform height
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow your feet and gait to adjust to the platform. Ensure the fit is correct and consider using insoles if needed.
Leather appears dry or scuffed
Clean the affected area with a damp cloth and then apply a leather conditioner or polish specifically designed for white leather to restore moisture and cover minor scuffs.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces
While designed for grip, very smooth or wet surfaces can still pose a challenge. Ensure the sole is clean. For added traction on slick surfaces, consider a sole grip enhancer product.
