FAQs

What is the primary material of the Varick Trainers?

The Varick Trainers feature an upper constructed from a combination of suede and oxford fabric.

Are these trainers suitable for running or athletic activities?

While inspired by running sneakers, the Varick Trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, not high-impact athletic performance.

How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a specialized suede brush for general cleaning. For stains, a dedicated suede cleaner is recommended. It's best to avoid wearing them in wet conditions.

What is the heel height of these trainers?

The heel height is flat, consistent with casual trainers.

What does 'T-toe silhouette' mean?

A T-toe silhouette refers to a design feature on the front of the shoe where a T-shaped overlay or stitching pattern is present, often seen in retro athletic shoes.

Can I replace the insole?

The trainers feature a die-cut EVA midsole which is part of the shoe's structure. While not designed for easy removal, aftermarket insoles can often be placed on top if additional support is desired.

What are the fastener options?

These trainers utilize laces as their primary fastener.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, consult a suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully. Test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Laces are difficult to tie or stay tied

Ensure laces are the correct length and material. Consider double-knotting for extra security if they tend to come undone.

General wear and tear on the outsole

Regularly check the embossed pattern for excessive wear. The shoes are intended for casual use, not strenuous activity which can accelerate wear.

Insole feels uncomfortable after prolonged wear

The EVA midsole provides cushioning. If further support is needed, consider using aftermarket insoles compatible with trainers.
