Are these shoes suitable for running?

How should I clean the polka dot pattern?
Gently wipe the shoes with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or soaking the shoes to preserve the pattern and materials.

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. For initial wear, try wearing them with thinner socks. If the issue persists, consider if the shoe's shape is a good fit for your foot.
Discoloration of the polka dot pattern
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean gently with a damp cloth rather than harsh chemicals.
Traction feels insufficient on wet surfaces
The herringbone rubber outsole provides traction, but it's advisable to exercise caution on very slick or wet surfaces, as with most casual footwear.
