FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for athletic activities?

These trainers are designed for fashion and casual wear, not for high-impact athletic activities. They offer comfort for everyday walking but lack the specialized support and durability for sports.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the brand's specific size guide, usually available online or with the product. Measure your foot length and compare it to the chart provided for Polo Ralph Lauren footwear.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the suede can be treated for water resistance, it is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the material and ensure longevity.

What is the difference between suede and leather versions?

Suede offers a softer, more textured finish and a slightly more casual appearance, while leather typically provides a smoother, more durable surface and can often be dressed up more easily. Suede generally requires more specific care.

How often should I reapply suede protector?

It is recommended to reapply suede protector every few months, or after cleaning the shoes, to maintain their protective qualities.

Can the laces be replaced?

Yes, the laces can be replaced. Standard shoelaces of a similar length and color can be used as replacements.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stains, try a suede eraser or consult a professional cleaner.

Shoes feel too tight

Wear them with thicker socks around the house to help them stretch slightly. Ensure you have selected the correct size, referring to the size chart if necessary.

Gum sole is dirty

Wipe the gum sole with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution and a soft brush can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: These trainers require no assembly. Simply remove them from the box, and they are ready to wear.

Compatibility: The Bedford Trainers are designed for adult men and are suitable for a wide range of casual and smart-casual outfits. They pair well with trousers, chinos, jeans, and shorts.

Care:

  1. Cleaning Suede: Use a soft brush specifically designed for suede to remove loose dirt and dust. For tougher stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid using water or harsh cleaning chemicals, as these can damage the suede.
  2. Drying: If the trainers get wet, stuff them with paper to help them retain their shape and allow them to air dry naturally. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators.
  3. Protection: Consider using a suede protector spray to provide a barrier against moisture and stains. Reapply periodically, especially after cleaning.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box to protect them from dust and damage.
