Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on the mesh

Sole traction loss

Check the outsole for lodged debris or pebbles that may impact grip; clean as needed with a damp cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best fit, ensure you select your standard UK sizing, as the unisex design provides a consistent feel. To maintain the condition of your trainers:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe leather and synthetic overlays with a damp cloth; avoid total submersion in water.
  2. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading of the beige tones.
  3. Mesh Care: Gently brush the mesh fabric with a soft-bristled brush to remove dust and debris.
  4. Rotation: Allow the shoes to air out for 24 hours between heavy usage days to maintain cushioning responsiveness.
