Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your DC Shoes Hyde Trainers last as long as possible, follow these care guidelines:
- Breaking In: Wear them around the house for short periods to allow the cotton upper to conform to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the cotton material. For deeper stains, use a mild fabric-safe cleaner and a damp cloth; avoid submerging the shoes in water.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the fabric over time.
- Lacing: Periodically inspect the ghillie loops for signs of wear and re-adjust the laces to ensure consistent support.
