FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Brooklyn Trainers are lifestyle shoes and lack the necessary cushioning and support for long-distance running.
How do I clean the rubber sole?
You can clean the rubber sole using a damp cloth and a mild soap solution, wiping gently to avoid getting water on the suede parts.
Does the sizing run true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to standard UK adult sizing, though the suede may stretch slightly with use.
Can I use these in the winter?
They are suitable for dry winter days, but should be avoided in heavy snow or slush as salt and water can permanently stain the suede.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is constructed from high-quality suede.
Troubleshooting
Scuff marks on the suede surface
Use a specialized suede eraser or a soft-bristle brush to gently lift and remove surface scuffs.
Water spots after getting caught in the rain
Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from heat sources, then use a suede brush to restore the nap of the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before wearing your Brooklyn Trainers for the first time, it is highly recommended to apply a suede-specific water repellent spray to protect the material from stains and light moisture. To maintain their appearance, use a soft-bristle brush to remove surface dust and dirt after use. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the suede texture and compromise the adhesive integrity of the sole. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the grey colour from fading over time.
