Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone frequently

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, ensure you select your standard UK sizing for unisex trainers. To maintain the appearance of your grey Shadow 5000s, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading. If the shoes become soiled, spot clean the upper with a soft brush and a mild detergent. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the adhesives and structural foam. Allow them to air dry naturally away from artificial heat sources.
