Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers remain in top condition, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the upper with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not submerge the shoes in water or place them in a washing machine.
  2. Drying: Air dry at room temperature away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which can cause material degradation.
  3. Compatibility: These trainers fit true to size for most adults. If you have wider feet, consider checking the specific size chart for your preferred colorway, as variants like the Purple or White-Pink series may have different stock availability.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place and use a shoe tree to maintain the shape of the upper when not in use.
