FAQs
What material are these trainers made of?
The trainers feature a leather upper and a leather lining, with a rubber outsole.
How do I ensure the best fit?
These trainers have a regular fit. It's recommended to check your UK shoe size. If you are between sizes or have wider feet, consider trying them on if possible or looking for reviews on fit.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather and the construction of the shoe.
How often should I condition the leather?
It's advisable to condition the leather every 3-6 months, depending on wear and environmental conditions, to maintain its quality.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The leather upper offers some resistance to light moisture, but the trainers are not fully waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions.
What does 'double stitched t-toe' mean?
This refers to a construction technique where the 'T' shaped toe box area is reinforced with two rows of stitching for added durability and a distinct visual detail.
What is the origin of this design?
The design draws inspiration from a classic adidas silhouette that was originally released in 1964.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing excessively
Ensure proper fit. Use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape. Avoid over-tightening laces.
Gold foil branding losing shine
Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive rubbing on the branded areas. Clean gently with a slightly damp cloth.
Slight discomfort on first wear
Leather shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time as they conform to your feet.
Laces fraying
Replace laces with similar material. Consider using waxed laces for increased durability.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For stubborn stains, a dedicated leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the shoes in water.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Test conditioner on an inconspicuous area first.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or their original box to protect them from dust and damage.
