FAQs - Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Why does 1587 Sneakers use Italian full-grain leather and natural rubber?
1587 Sneakers uses Italian full-grain leather because it resists creases, warping, and lasts a lifetime. It maintains a premium look and can be easily cleaned with just a cloth and water.
