Troubleshooting

Visible dust or dirt on suede overlays

Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift dirt particles in a single direction.

Laces coming untied during wear

Double knot the laces or replace with a slightly longer pair if necessary to ensure a secure lock.

Odour buildup after frequent use

Remove the insoles to air out and use a mild shoe-safe deodorizing spray.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Authentic retro styling
  • Excellent breathability from mesh construction
  • Lightweight feel for daily walking
  • Stable rubber outsole for reliable grip

Cons

  • Suede overlays are sensitive to moisture and stains
  • Not intended for heavy-duty sports or high-intensity training
  • Requires regular upkeep to preserve material texture

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best fit, ensure the laces are fully loosened before sliding your foot in, then tighten from the toe upward to achieve a secure, personalized hold. Because the upper utilizes a mix of mesh and suede, keep these shoes away from harsh cleaning chemicals. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the suede portions and a damp cloth for the mesh sections. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat and excessive water can compromise the leather and suede bonding. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material fading.
