FAQs

What material are the Bedford trainers made from?

The Bedford trainers feature a construction of suede and leather.

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

These trainers are designed for casual wear and offer comfort for walking, but they are not intended for athletic activities that require specialized support or cushioning.

How should I clean the suede material?

Use a suede brush for regular cleaning. For stains, a suede eraser is recommended. Avoid using water directly on the suede and allow it to air dry naturally.

What is the inspiration behind the sole design?

The rubber sole features a unique design that pays homage to the Boulevard Saint-Germain, an iconic street in Paris where Ralph Lauren's flagship store is located.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

Yes, the Bedford series is available in various colorways, including black and white, with different material combinations.

What is the heel height of these trainers?

The Bedford trainers have a flat heel height, designed for comfort during everyday wear.

How do I ensure I order the correct size?

The sizes are listed in UK men's sizing. It is recommended to check a size conversion chart if you are unsure of your equivalent UK size.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears discolored or dirty.

Use a suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For persistent marks, try a suede eraser or consult a professional shoe cleaner.

Laces are difficult to tie or keep tied.

Ensure laces are threaded correctly through eyelets. Consider replacing laces if they are worn or slippery. Tying a double knot can help secure them.

Leather sections show creases or scuffs.

Minor creases are normal with wear. For scuffs, try a leather conditioner or polish that matches the shoe's color. Avoid exposing leather to excessive moisture.

Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces.

The rubber sole provides grip, but extremely smooth or wet surfaces can reduce traction. Ensure the sole is clean; dirt can sometimes affect grip.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning Suede: Use a suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust regularly. For tougher stains, a suede eraser can be used. Avoid using water directly on suede; if necessary, use a slightly damp cloth sparingly and allow to air dry completely away from direct heat.
  2. Cleaning Leather: Wipe leather sections with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Condition the leather periodically to keep it supple.
  3. Sole Care: Wipe the rubber sole with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the rubber.
  4. Storage: Store trainers in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
