FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing, but if you are between sizes, it is recommended to opt for the larger size.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the structure of the shoe. Use hand-cleaning methods only.
Are these suitable for intense sports?
These are luxury lifestyle trainers. While durable, they are not designed for high-impact athletic performance or sports training.
How do I protect the light beige color?
Use a neutral leather water and stain repellent spray, ensuring you test a small, inconspicuous area first.
Does the Prada branding wear off easily?
The branding is integrated into the design and is highly durable, though it should be cleaned gently to avoid abrasion.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather upper
Use cedar shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to maintain their shape and minimize natural creasing.
Dirt stuck in layered sections
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove debris from the seams between the layered leather panels.
Leather losing luster
Apply a high-quality leather cream or polish specifically matched to the shoe color to restore shine.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No initial setup is required; the trainers are ready to wear out of the box. To ensure the longevity of the leather, store these trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the beige finish over time. For cleaning, wipe the leather with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or submerging the shoes in water. Use a dedicated leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators.
