FAQs

How do I clean the suede on my Rife Trainers?

Gently brush away surface dirt with a suede brush. For tougher spots, use a suede eraser. For wet stains, blot immediately. Never use water directly on suede or put them in a washing machine.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, suede is not naturally waterproof. We highly recommend applying a quality suede protector spray before wearing them and reapplying regularly to help repel water and stains. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain.

What is the sizing like for ALOHAS Rife Trainers?

The trainers come in standard UK adult sizing. We recommend choosing your usual UK shoe size for the best fit. If you are between sizes, consider reviewing specific brand sizing guides or customer reviews if available.

Where are these trainers manufactured?

ALOHAS Rife Trainers are proudly made in Portugal, known for its high-quality shoe craftsmanship.

Can I wear these trainers with formal attire?

The ALOHAS Rife Trainers are designed with a classic, casual aesthetic. While they can elevate smart-casual outfits, they are generally not suitable for formal occasions.

Do they offer good arch support?

The trainers feature a comfortable leather lining and cushioning. Info needed: For specific arch support levels, we recommend consulting additional product specifications or trying them on. If you require significant arch support, aftermarket insoles may be an option.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher marks, a suede eraser can be effective. Always brush in one direction.

Trainers feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

Like many premium leather products, your trainers may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house initially to allow the materials to conform to your foot shape.

Stains on suede material.

For fresh liquid stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth (do not rub). For dried stains, use a suede eraser or a small amount of distilled white vinegar on a clean cloth, gently dabbing the stain. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.
