Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are crafted from leather, keep the shoes away from harsh weather and avoid submerging them in water. To maintain the crisp white appearance, use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft-bristled brush. Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the leather from yellowing or cracking. For optimal comfort, ensure you have the correct UK 7.5 sizing as the fit is standard for low-profile sneakers.
