FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for industrial work?
No, these are casual trainers and do not provide the safety toe or puncture-resistant features required for industrial or construction environments.
How do I keep the suede looking clean?
Use a soft-bristled suede brush regularly to remove surface dust and prevent dirt from embedding into the fibers.
Do I need to spray these with a protector?
Applying a water-repellent spray designed for suede can help prevent future stains, but always test on a small, hidden area first.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can permanently damage the suede material and affect the bond of the outsole adhesives.
What does the CLEANSPORT NXT technology do?
It is a self-activating probiotic layer applied to the lining that breaks down sweat and prevents the growth of odor-causing bacteria.
Troubleshooting
Suede surface shows signs of water spots
Lightly dampen the entire suede surface evenly and allow it to dry naturally to help the material settle back to a uniform texture.
Stiffness after storage
Gently massage the suede material with your hands or use a suede brush to restore the nap and flexibility of the fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Caterpillar Grapple Trainers maintain their appearance, avoid submerging them in water, as suede is a porous material. If they become dirty, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dust or dried mud gently. For minor marks, a suede eraser is recommended. Because these are lifestyle trainers, ensure the fit is snug but comfortable; since they feature a structured suede upper, the material will offer minimal stretch over time compared to canvas shoes. Always allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent the suede from becoming stiff or discolored.
