How do I clean the white/cream parts?
Spot clean using a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid bleach or heavy detergents as these can discolor the cream fabric.
Is the material waterproof?
The materials are not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain to prevent staining and damage.

Troubleshooting

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These sneakers fit true to size for most adults. Ensure you are utilizing the correct UK sizing, as the fit is snug and streamlined.
Compatibility: The cream and blue design is highly compatible with casual denim, chinos, or shorts. The slim profile prevents them from overpowering the look of tapered or cropped trousers.
Care: To maintain the appearance of the cream-colored fabric, spot clean with a soft cloth and a gentle cleaning solution. Avoid machine washing, which can damage the adhesive and structural integrity of the shoes. Air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent the material from cracking or warping.
