How should I store my trainers when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape. Avoid storing them in plastic bags, which can trap moisture.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Canvas will naturally stretch slightly with wear. Wear them around the house for short periods to break them in. If they remain uncomfortably tight, consider if this size is appropriate or if a different size might be better.

Canvas material gets dirty easily

Use a soft brush and a mild soap solution to gently clean the canvas. For stubborn stains, a dedicated canvas shoe cleaner can be effective. Promptly address spills to prevent them from setting.

Elasticated inserts feel loose

Over time, elastic can lose its elasticity. If the inserts feel significantly loose, it may indicate wear. For minor looseness, specialized shoe repair kits might offer temporary solutions, but significant wear may require professional attention.
