What is the recommended way to store these trainers?
It's best to store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, ideally using shoe trees to maintain their shape.

Troubleshooting
Sizing feels off
Ensure you are comparing against the correct sizing chart (UK sizing). If still unsure, consider trying them on in-store if possible or checking customer reviews for fit feedback.
Creasing on leather
Natural creasing will occur with wear. To minimize excessive creasing, use shoe trees when not in use. Avoid folding the shoes unnaturally.
Discoloration of light colors
Avoid contact with dark or dyed materials that could transfer color. Clean spills immediately following care instructions.

- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains on the leather, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Avoid machine washing.
