Frequently Asked Questions
Are they comfortable for all-day walking? Yes, but the slim fit requires the correct size. Vintage EVA is less cushioned than modern running shoes.
Should I go up half a size? Yes, if you have wide or normal feet. Narrow feet = usual size.
Does black suede get damaged easily? With protective spray and regular maintenance, it lasts for years.
Are they good for sports? No, they are vintage lifestyle sneakers, not performance shoes.
