FAQs
Are these Kickers trainers truly vegan?
Yes, these Kickers Tovni Lacer trainers are designed with a vegan-friendly construction, featuring an upper made from 75% plant-based materials and no animal-derived components.
What does BCI mean for the laces?
BCI stands for Better Cotton Initiative. It is a global not-for-profit organization that promotes better standards in cotton farming and practices. Using BCI laces means they are sourced more sustainably.
Can the shoebox be recycled?
Absolutely. The shoeboxes are FSC certified, made from 90% recycled material, printed with natural soya ink, and are 100% recyclable. Please dispose of them responsibly.
Are these trainers suitable for athletic activities or sports?
These Tovni Lacer trainers are designed for casual, everyday wear and comfort. While durable, they are not specifically engineered for high-performance athletic activities or intense sports.
How should I clean the plant-based material?
We recommend cleaning the plant-based material with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher spots, a very mild soap solution can be used, ensuring you wipe off any excess soap with a clean damp cloth afterward and allow to air dry.
What is the plant-based material made from?
The plant-based material used in these trainers is made from 75% plant-based components, including a mix of corn and cereals. These are grown for non-food purposes and are 100% GMO-free and FSC certified Viscose.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too loose or too tight.
Adjust the BCI laces. Ensure they are evenly tightened across your foot and tied securely. Experiment with different lacing patterns if discomfort persists.
Scuff marks on the plant-based upper.
For light scuffs, gently rub with a damp cloth. For more persistent marks, a small amount of mild, diluted soap on a soft brush can be used, followed by wiping with a clean damp cloth.
Laces frequently come untied.
Ensure you are tying a double knot to provide extra security, especially if you are very active or walk a lot.
Shoe appears dull or dusty after wear.
Regularly wipe down the trainers with a soft, slightly damp cloth to keep the plant-based material looking fresh and clean.

- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent material damage.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place. Using the original FSC certified shoebox can help protect them from dust and damage.
