Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are designed to fit true to size for most adult users. To ensure longevity, keep the shoes away from heavy mud or harsh chemicals that can stain the white checkered segments. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt from the canvas, and wipe the rubber sidewalls with a damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry your sneakers in a well-ventilated area, avoiding direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the rubber or canvas from warping.
