Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure peak performance, verify your size using the UK standard sizing provided for your specific model. When lacing, ensure a firm but comfortable tension across the midfoot to leverage the built-in stability features. Regarding care, remove loose clay from the outsoles after every session using a soft brush; if the upper becomes soiled, wipe it down with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes or using a machine wash, as this can degrade the specialized adhesives and the internal cushioning properties. Always allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to preserve the shape and integrity of the materials.
