FAQs
How do I clean the mixed materials on the trainers?
Clean each material type according to its specific needs: leather with a damp cloth and conditioner, suede/nubuck with a brush and protector spray, and mesh with a mild soap and damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
Can I replace the footbeds with my own orthotics?
Yes, the trainers feature removable cushioned footbeds, allowing you to insert custom orthotics or your preferred insoles for personalized comfort.
Are these trainers suitable for running or intense sports?
While inspired by trail running shoes, these trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and light athletic activities. For intense sports, dedicated athletic footwear is recommended.
How do I maintain the reflective webbing?
Wipe the reflective webbing gently with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the reflective coating.
What is the best way to store these trainers?
Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag to protect the materials from dust and light.
Does the split design affect the structural integrity of the shoe?
No, the split design is a stylistic choice and does not compromise the structural integrity or comfort of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort after initial wear
Allow a break-in period of a few wears. Consider replacing the footbed with your preferred cushioned insole if needed.
Suede or nubuck material looks dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consider a dedicated suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Laces becoming worn
Replace laces with a similar style or color from a shoe care specialist.
