FAQs

What is the heel height of these trainers?

The heel height is approximately 4cm (1.5 inches) due to the double-layered sole.

Are these suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, they are designed for all-day comfort with a softened lining and quality materials, though an adjustment period for the platform may be needed.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Wipe with a damp cloth. For stains, use a specialized leather cleaner, and consider a leather protectant spray for maintenance.

What type of outfits do these trainers best complement?

They are highly versatile and pair well with casual outfits like jeans and t-shirts, as well as more dressed-up casual looks with dresses or chinos.

Is the platform sole heavy?

The platform sole is constructed to add height without excessive weight, aiming for a balance between style and wearability.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, they are not waterproof. It's advisable to avoid heavy rain and to treat the leather with a water-repellent spray for added protection.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is made from 100% premium leather.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort with platform sole

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow your feet to adjust to the height. Ensure the laces are adjusted for a secure but not overly tight fit.

Leather creasing or scuffing

Minor creasing is normal for leather. For scuffs, try using a leather conditioner or a specialized leather repair product. Regular conditioning helps maintain the leather's appearance.

Squeaking sound

Squeaking can sometimes occur between the sole and the insole. Try adding a small amount of talcum powder or a dryer sheet inside the shoe to absorb moisture and reduce friction.

Difficulty cleaning white leather

Use a dedicated white leather cleaner and a soft brush or cloth. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first. For stubborn marks, consider professional shoe cleaning services.
