FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally fit according to standard UK adult sizing, though the suede may stretch slightly over time with wear.
Can these be washed in a machine?
No, machine washing will ruin the suede material and the structural integrity of the shoe; only surface clean by hand.
Are they suitable for athletic sports?
These are considered lifestyle trainers. While durable, they lack the advanced technical support and cushioning found in modern high-performance athletic footwear.
How do I protect them from rain?
It is highly recommended to apply a dedicated suede-safe water repellent spray before wearing them outside to create a protective barrier.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed from high-quality suede, while the sole is made from durable, textured rubber.
Troubleshooting
Visible dust or lint on suede surface
Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently stroke the fabric in one direction to remove debris.
Minor scuff marks on the material
Gently rub the area with a dry suede eraser to lift the mark; do not apply water or household soaps.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are lace-up trainers, setup involves simply adjusting the laces to your desired tension for a secure lockdown across the midfoot. For compatibility, the neutral grey and white colourway makes these highly adaptable to most casual outfits. To ensure longevity, keep the shoes away from heavy rain or muddy conditions, as water can damage the texture of the suede. If they get dusty, use a specialized suede brush to restore the nap. For minor marks, a suede eraser can be used to lift dirt without requiring harsh liquids or detergents that might strip the colour.
