Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last as long as possible, avoid machine washing. Instead, spot clean the polyester upper with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. For the midsole, a damp brush can effectively remove dirt trapped in the sculpted crevices. When storing the shoes, keep them away from direct heat sources or prolonged sunlight, which can affect the material integrity. Ensure the laces are adjusted to provide a snug fit without being overtightened, which helps maintain the internal shape of the shoe.
