Questions and answers

Is the Burberry Matrix Sport true to size?

It is listed in standard US men's sizes from 8 to 11.5. Most designer sneakers run close to standard, but suede uppers can feel snug at first, so try your usual size and size up only if you wear thick socks.

Is it actually waterproof?

The upper is listed as waterproof, which covers rain and damp pavement. The canvas panels and stitching are the weak points over time, so treat it as weather-resistant rather than a rain boot.

How does it compare with the Alexander McQueen Oversized sneaker?

The Matrix Sport is lower and slimmer, with a suede and canvas upper instead of smooth leather. The McQueen has a thicker sole and a bulkier look; this one is easier to wear every day.

Can I wear it with shorts?

Yes. The low-top cut and slim sole suit shorts in summer. The suede and check detailing make it dressier than a mesh runner.

What should I use to clean the suede?

Use a suede brush and eraser for dry dirt, and a suede protector spray before first wear. Avoid soaking the canvas, and let the shoes air-dry away from direct heat.

Is it good for all-day walking?

It is a casual sneaker, not a walking shoe. The rubber sole gives grip, but cushioning is modest compared with running-derived rivals, so long city days may feel firm.
