Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Your BOSS Low-Top Platform Trainers are ready to wear right out of the box. Simply lace them up to your preferred tension using the traditional eyelets. Ensure the laces are snug but not too tight to allow for natural foot movement and circulation.
Compatibility
These trainers are highly versatile and complement a wide range of styles:
- Casual Attire: Pair effortlessly with jeans, chinos, shorts, and t-shirts for a relaxed yet polished look.
- Smart-Casual Ensembles: Elevate your smart-casual outfits by combining them with tailored trousers, blazers, polo shirts, or casual button-downs. The clean white leather and minimalist design ensure they blend seamlessly.
Care Instructions
Proper care will significantly extend the life and appearance of your premium leather trainers:
- Initial Protection: Before first wear, consider applying a leather protector spray suitable for white leather. This creates a barrier against water and stains.
- Regular Cleaning: For general dirt and dust, wipe the leather surfaces with a soft, slightly damp cloth after each wear.
- Spot Cleaning: For more stubborn marks on the white leather, use a specialised white leather cleaner. Apply a small amount to a clean cloth and gently rub the affected area. Always test on an inconspicuous spot first.
- Sole Care: Wipe the platform soles with a damp cloth or a soft brush to remove dirt and scuffs. For tougher marks, a magic eraser can be effective.
- Drying: If your trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the leather.
- Conditioning: Periodically apply a good quality leather conditioner to keep the leather soft, supple, and prevent cracking. Follow the product instructions carefully.
- Storage: When not in use, store your trainers in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
