FAQs

Are these trainers true to size?

The sizing is generally considered standard for a fashion sneaker. It is recommended to check the specific size guide and compare with your foot measurements for the best fit. Referencing reviews or trying them on, if possible, is also advisable.

How do I clean the white leather?

Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away surface dirt. For more stubborn marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

What is the best way to maintain the oversized rubber sole?

Wipe the sole with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the rubber and its finish.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

While the leather is durable, it is not waterproof. It is recommended to avoid wearing them in heavy rain. Applying a leather protector spray can offer some water resistance.

What is the signature on the shoe?

The sneakers feature the distinctive Alexander McQueen signature on the heel counter and the tongue, contributing to their branded aesthetic.

Are these suitable for men and women?

Yes, the ALEXANDER MCQUEEN Oversized Sneakers are designed with a unisex appeal and are suitable for adults of all genders.

How do I store these sneakers to keep them in good condition?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Keeping them in their original box or using a shoe bag is recommended to protect them from dust and damage.

Troubleshooting

Leather creasing or wrinkling

Natural leather will crease with wear. To minimize this, ensure proper fit and use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape.

Oversized sole feels cumbersome

Allow a break-in period of a few wears. Walking in them regularly will help your gait adjust. Ensure the size is correct; too large a size can exacerbate this feeling.

White leather getting dirty easily

Regularly wipe down with a damp cloth after each wear. Use a dedicated leather cleaner for stains and consider a protective spray to repel dirt.

Discoloration on rubber sole

Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbing which could damage the material.
