FAQs

How do I determine the correct size?

The Axel Arigato Dice T-Toe Sneaker is designed to fit true to size. It is recommended to order your usual shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider the fit preference or consult the brand's specific size chart if available.

What is the primary material of the sneaker?

The sneaker features a combination of premium leather and suede on its paneled upper.

Is this sneaker suitable for athletic activities like running?

While inspired by 70s running shoes, this sneaker is designed primarily for casual, everyday wear and fashion. It is not intended for rigorous athletic activities that require specialized performance footwear.

How should I clean the rubber lug sole?

The rubber sole can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, as they may damage or degrade the rubber material.

Can I wear these sneakers in wet weather?

While the rubber sole offers some protection, the leather and suede materials are not inherently waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions. Applying a suitable waterproofing spray can offer some protection.

What is the advantage of the 'T-Toe' design?

The 'T-Toe' refers to a specific design element often seen in vintage athletic shoes, characterized by a T-shaped overlay on the toe box. In this sneaker, it contributes to the retro aesthetic and adds a textural detail to the upper.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather or suede.

Some creasing is natural with wear. For significant creasing, try using shoe trees to help maintain shape. Avoid over-tightening laces.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.

Ensure the rubber lug sole is clean and free of debris. The lug design provides grip, but extremely smooth surfaces may still present challenges. Consider a professional sole treatment if persistent slippage occurs.

Discoloration of materials.

Protect from prolonged direct sunlight. Follow specific cleaning instructions for leather and suede to prevent damage and discoloration. Use appropriate protectors before wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These sneakers require no assembly. Simply unbox and they are ready for immediate wear.

Compatibility: The Dice T-Toe Sneaker is designed for a true-to-size fit. They are compatible with a wide range of casual and smart-casual attire. Consider the low-profile nature when pairing with athletic wear that emphasizes bulkier footwear.

Care Instructions:

  • Leather: Clean leather areas with a soft, damp cloth. Use a dedicated leather cleaner for tougher marks, followed by a leather conditioner to maintain suppleness.
  • Suede: Use a suede brush to remove dirt and maintain the nap. For stains, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner may be required. Protect suede with a waterproofing spray suitable for footwear.
  • Sole: Wipe the rubber sole with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the rubber.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or their original box, to protect them from dust and moisture.
