How do I keep the white mesh clean?
Spot clean immediately after getting them dirty using a soft cloth and a gentle cleaning solution to prevent stains from setting.

What is the purpose of the ABZORB SBS pods?

Troubleshooting
Creasing on the upper overlays
Use a shoe tree when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the shape and reduce permanent creasing.
Dirt stuck in the open-holed mesh
Use a dry, soft-bristled brush to gently knock out dried mud or dust before wiping with a damp cloth.
Loss of cushioning feel
Remove the insoles to air them out or replace them with third-party orthotics if you require additional arch support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are lace-up trainers, ensure you adjust the lacing tension across the midfoot to lock in the heel without restricting circulation. Compatibility is universal across casual wardrobes, pairing well with denim or athletic wear. For care, avoid machine washing as this can damage the structural integrity of the overlays. Instead, wipe the mesh upper gently with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. For the midsole, use a dedicated sneaker cleaning solution to remove debris from the ABZORB pods. Always air dry in a well-ventilated space away from direct heat sources, which can warp the cushioning materials.
