Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last, follow these guidelines. When you first receive the shoes, ensure the size fits comfortably as per your standard UK footwear size. Because these are constructed with premium leather, avoid machine washing; instead, use a soft, dry brush to remove surface debris from the layered panels. For deeper cleaning, apply a leather-safe cleaner sparingly with a cloth. Avoid exposing the shoes to excessive moisture or direct heat sources like radiators, as this can cause the leather to stiffen or crack. Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight when not in use to preserve the integrity of the Dark Navy pigment.
