Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone during activity
Try a double knot or replace with slightly longer, textured laces if they are too stiff.
Creasing on the upper material
Use shoe trees when not wearing to help maintain the structure and minimize permanent creases.
Outsole collecting debris
The split-outsole design may trap pebbles; simply dislodge them with a dull tool or brush after walking in gravelly areas.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers are lace-up models, ensure the laces are adjusted to accommodate your foot volume before the first wear to avoid unnecessary tension on the upper material. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the outsole. If the upper becomes soiled, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can compromise the cushioning materials and the structure of the upper. To maintain the shape of your shoes when not in use, keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
