Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Skylon 11 trainers maintain their performance, follow these guidelines:
- Fit Check: Ensure you select the correct UK adult size. As with most Nike trainers, consider if you prefer extra room for thicker socks.
- Initial Break-in: Wear them for short durations indoors for the first few days to allow the leather to flex naturally to your gait.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh. For the leather portions, wipe with a damp, soft cloth and a mild soap solution if necessary. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause the leather to crack or the glue to degrade.
