Radical Yes 'Always' Elevated Slip On Trainer - Black Leather

Our Always easy slip-on trainer is a new addition to our favourite '30-wears-or-more' styles. A hybrid trainer-loafer style, this is your radical every day essential sorted. Perfect to take you on your commute and into work, in style.

The Always shoe includes our very own custom outsole design, which offers natural spring while the spongey, latex grade insole board ensures total comfort and support. Featuring padding in the throat and heel of the shoe and a beautiful, soft leather lining and innersole, this trainer epitomises the complimentary ideals of strength and beauty that form the foundation of every Radical Yes collection.

Running true to fit. Set on the same last and outsole unit as Saturn Returns and Journey Trainers, so you can follow the same sizing if you have either of those styles. You can check out our size guide here.

A classic black monochrome shoe: black leather upper, with a black outsole, stitching and elastic. Crafted from the soft, yet durable handle leather and lined in a contrast soft rose pink leather for a playful take. Includes our standard removable leather inner sole which makes them orthotic friendly. Finished with very functional, high-grip black rubber outsole embossed with our signature 'Hasten Slowly' mantra on the sole as a reminder to take it easy.

Everyday. Everyday. Everyday! Keep the mood modern with oversized black basics and a neutral trench coat during the week, or cut to weekend easy with oversized stripes and denim. We also love to match the serious tones of this black silhouette with rolled cuffed jeans and contrasting bright socks for winter.

This is high quality soft leather upper finish so it does need care - please see the care instructions for details.

This is high quality leather upper so it does need care. 

Leather is a wonderful material, breathable, durable and beautiful. But without a bit of love it can dry out and deteriorate.

For optimum care, we recommend and sell "Waproo Waterproofer" to protect them from unexpected showers. We recommend spraying monthly on the Full Moon and can send you a reminder if you sign up to our newsletter here.

Polish your leather shoes around once a month and clean when necessary with a leather conditioner and soft rag to remove any dirt accumulated on your travels.

For extra special treatment, polishing can help renew shoes that have developed scratches or other signs of regular wear. Wax and cream polishes available from a local shoe repairer will breath new life into your beloved toe tappers. Once your newly polished shoes have dried you can re-apply a waterproof spray for extra protection.
