FAQs

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is made of soft, blue suede.

What kind of sole does this shoe have?

Regularly brush the suede with a suede brush. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product instructions. It's best to avoid wearing them in wet weather.

Is this shoe suitable for athletic activities?

These shoes are designed for casual wear and light walking, not for strenuous athletic activities. The gum sole offers good grip for everyday use.

What is the fit like?

The fit is generally true to size for a casual shoe. The suede and leather lining will mold to your foot over time for a more personalized comfort.

Does this model come in other colors?

This specific model is the BW Army Decon in blue suede. Other variations in the BW Army and Army series may be available in different colors and materials.

What does 'Decon' mean in the product name?

'Decon' refers to a deconstructed version, meaning the shoe has a simplified, sleeker, and often softer construction compared to its original counterpart.

Troubleshooting

Suede looking dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to restore the nap and remove light dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and test on an inconspicuous area first.

Shoes feel too tight initially

Suede and leather will stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them with thin socks around the house for a short period to break them in.

Gum sole has scuff marks

Try gently scrubbing the marks with a pencil eraser or a melamine sponge. For persistent marks, a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush may help.
