FAQs

What age group are these trainers for?

These trainers are designed for kids, with specific sizing available for younger children and youth.

Are these suitable for sports?

While comfortable for everyday wear and light activities, their design is more fashion-oriented. For rigorous athletic training, specialized sports shoes may be more appropriate.

How do I clean the pink and purple leather?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For tougher spots, a mild leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

What does 'warped sensibility' mean in the description?

It refers to the design elements that give the shoe a unique, slightly exaggerated, and futuristic look, inspired by Y2K aesthetics, such as modified proportions and dynamic lines.

How do the ABZORB and SBS cushioning work?

ABZORB provides excellent shock absorption, while SBS (Scaphoid Bone Stabilizer) offers cushioning and stability for the foot.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

The leather upper offers some protection, but these are not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions and to dry them thoroughly if they do get wet.

What is the closure system?

The trainers feature a traditional lace-up closure, allowing for a secure and adjustable fit.

Troubleshooting

Scuffs on leather surface

For minor scuffs, try a leather conditioner or a specialized leather cleaner. For deeper scuffs, consult a shoe repair specialist.

Laces become dirty

Remove laces and wash them with mild soap and water, then air dry. Consider replacing them if they are heavily worn.

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure the laces are tied correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit. Break in the shoes with short periods of wear before extended use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: Designed for children's feet, suitable for casual wear and everyday activities.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the color and material integrity.
