Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Your Hi-Tec Silver Shadow OG Trainers are ready to wear right out of the box. Simply:
- Unlace the trainers slightly to allow easy entry.
- Insert your foot, ensuring your heel is comfortably seated against the TPU moulded external heel counter.
- Adjust the vari-width lacing by pulling the laces through the nylon D-rings. Start from the bottom and work your way up, tightening evenly to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit across your foot. The vari-width lacing allows for personalized adjustment to match your foot's contour.
- Tie a secure knot.
Compatibility
These trainers are designed for adults and are sized according to UK adult foot sizing (e.g., UK 8, UK 7, UK 6.5, UK 9, UK 10, UK 11, UK 12). The design is broadly unisex, though often categorized under 'Male' due to traditional marketing. They are compatible with a range of casual and athletic apparel.
Care
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your trainers:
- Cleaning: The PU Suede upper and mesh panels should be wiped clean only. Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt and grime. For stubborn spots, a mild soap solution can be applied sparingly with the cloth, then wiped off with a clean damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: After cleaning, allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, which can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. You may use shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
- Removable Sockliner: The removable EVA sockliner can be taken out and hand-washed separately with mild soap and water, then air-dried, to maintain freshness.
