Troubleshooting
Visible scuffs on the white exterior
Use a soft-bristled brush or a white eraser to gently lift surface dirt and light scuffs.
Laces becoming frayed or dirty
Remove the laces and soak them in warm soapy water, or replace them entirely to rejuvenate the shoe's appearance.
Shoes feeling tight
Loosen the laces throughout the eyelets to distribute pressure more evenly across the top of the foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These shoes are designed for a standard fit; use the secure lace-up system to adjust the snugness to your preference. To ensure the longevity of your white trainers, avoid machine washing. Instead, spot clean with a soft cloth and a mild soap solution. If the shoes get wet, air-dry them away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to prevent the faux leather from warping or cracking. Periodically check the laces for wear and replace them to maintain a fresh look.
