Kickers Mervan Trainers - Black - Size 5

The Mervan series features a standard fit, but the leather material does offer a small degree of natural give over time.

No, machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives holding the sole. Always clean by hand.

Look for the iconic red and green tabs on the side of the shoe and the debossed branding on the leather.

Use an old toothbrush and mild soapy water to scrub the rubber outsole, then wipe dry with a towel.

While the leather is naturally water-resistant, it is not fully waterproof. A protective leather spray can be used to improve moisture resistance.

Ensure you are using a double-knot or replacing the laces with a slightly more textured lace material if the factory laces feel too slick.

Apply a small amount of black shoe cream or polish to the affected area and buff with a soft cloth to restore the shine.

Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'parallel' or 'gap' lacing style to relieve pressure points.
