Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The shoes arrive ready to wear with no break-in period required due to the soft leather construction. Ensure the Velcro straps are aligned correctly to maintain the clean silhouette.
Compatibility: These sneakers pair best with relaxed-fit jeans, joggers, or casual shorts. Avoid pairing them with formal tailored trousers to keep the aesthetic cohesive.
Care: To clean, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away surface dirt. Avoid using harsh leather cleaners or aggressive scrubbing, as this could unintentionally alter the intentional 'used-effect' finish of the material.
