Troubleshooting

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Retropy E5 trainers maintain their condition, perform a quick check of the fit upon arrival to verify the sizing is correct for your foot width and arch type. Compatibility is highest with casual clothing, including jeans, chinos, and athletic joggers. To care for your footwear, avoid machine washing; instead, spot clean the upper with a soft brush and mild soap. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping or adhesive breakdown.
