Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers feature high-quality leather, proper care is essential to maintain their visual appeal. To keep them clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface debris and a damp cloth with mild leather cleaner for localized spots. Avoid soaking the shoes or using harsh chemicals. Store them in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration of the University Blue accents. When fitting, ensure you are selecting the correct UK size, as the leather material provides a structured fit that does not stretch significantly over time.
