FAQs
Are these trainers true to size?
The Axel Arigato Clean 90 trainers are described as having a `regular fit`. We recommend choosing your standard UK shoe size. If you are typically between sizes, it is often advisable to consult a size guide or try them on.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?
While the leather is durable, these trainers are `100% leather` and not fully waterproof. We recommend avoiding heavy rain to protect the leather. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally and apply a leather protector for future wear.
How do I clean the gold-tone logo?
Gently wipe the `gold-tone logo stamp` with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the metallic finish.
What is LWG-certified leather?
LWG stands for Leather Working Group. `LWG-certified leather` means the leather production process has been audited and certified for environmental performance, including water usage, energy consumption, and waste management. It indicates a commitment to more sustainable practices.
Is the arch support sufficient for all foot types?
The `removable cushioned footbed` includes `arch support` designed for general comfort. However, individual foot needs vary. If you require specialized arch support, the removable footbed allows you to replace it with custom orthotics.
Can I replace the laces?
Yes, the `flat cotton laces` can be replaced with any standard flat trainer laces of a similar length. This allows for personalization or replacement if the original laces become worn.
Troubleshooting
Leather showing creases or wrinkles quickly.
Leather naturally creases with wear. To minimize this, use shoe trees when not wearing them. Regularly clean and moisturize the leather with a suitable leather conditioner to keep it supple.
Soles feel slippery or lack grip on certain surfaces.
The `partly recycled rubber cup soles` are designed for general urban wear. While durable, they may not offer optimal grip on extremely wet, icy, or highly polished surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions. Ensure soles are clean of debris for best traction.
Footbed feels less comfortable over time.
The `removable cushioned footbed` can be replaced. If comfort diminishes, consider purchasing new insoles or using specialized arch support inserts. Ensure the new footbed fits correctly within the shoe.

Care
Proper care is essential to maintain the pristine condition and longevity of your `100% leather` trainers.
- Cleaning: Wipe clean with a `damp cloth` regularly to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft cloth, following the product's instructions.
- Protection: Apply a leather protector spray periodically to help guard against water and stains.
- Storage: Always store your trainers in the `branded dustbag` provided when not in use. This protects them from dust and keeps the leather pristine.
- Drying: If trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources or sunlight, which can damage the leather.
- Shape Retention: Use shoe trees to help maintain the shoe's shape and absorb moisture when storing them for extended periods. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as these can damage the premium leather.
