How do I ensure the right fit?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer and consider your usual shoe size. The lace-up closure allows for some adjustment.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel insecure
Ensure laces are tied tightly and consider re-lacing them through all eyelets for a firmer hold.
Canvas upper appears dirty
Use a slightly damp cloth to gently wipe away surface dirt. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be applied sparingly with a soft brush.
Rubber sole has scuff marks
Try cleaning the marks with a sneaker cleaner or a damp cloth. For persistent marks, a magic eraser can be used with caution, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Discomfort from the platform sole
Allow a break-in period. Wear the trainers for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time to adjust to the platform height.
