FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The Axiom trainers are made from leather and PU-coated suede, which offer some resistance to water, but they are not fully waterproof. They are best suited for dry to moderately wet conditions. For heavy rain, consider specialized waterproof footwear.

What makes the Axiom trainers sustainable?

The sustainability comes from the use of 100% post-industrial recycled materials for the shoe's lining and sock lining, reducing waste and reliance on virgin resources.

How do I clean the waxy distressed leather?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For deeper cleaning or to restore the finish, use a product specifically designed for waxy distressed leather, testing in an inconspicuous area first.

Can I wear these trainers for athletic activities?

While the Axiom trainers offer comfort and traction, they are designed primarily for casual wear and urban environments, not for intense athletic training or sports which require specialized footwear.

What is the purpose of the molded PU foam footbed?

The molded PU foam footbed is designed to provide enhanced cushioning and support underfoot, ensuring comfort during extended periods of wear throughout the day.

How does the T1557 outsole contribute to performance?

The T1557 is a durable rubber compound specifically designed to provide reliable traction on various urban surfaces, helping to prevent slips and ensure stable footing.

Are there other sizes or colors available?

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have the correct size. Break them in gradually by wearing them for short periods. Consider using thicker socks or insoles if a slightly snugger fit is desired, or consult a shoe specialist for stretching options.

Traction seems reduced on slippery surfaces

Check the outsole for embedded debris or excessive wear. Clean the sole with water and a brush. If the tread is significantly worn, replacement might be necessary.

Leather or suede appears dry or scuffed

Apply a leather conditioner to moisturize the waxy leather. For scuffs, try a suede eraser for suede areas or a leather restorer product for the distressed leather, following product instructions carefully.
