Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the appearance of the Sail and Metallic Gold finish, avoid exposing the shoes to mud, water, or abrasive surfaces. For routine maintenance, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust and dirt from the upper materials. If cleaning is necessary, utilize a mild cleaning solution designed specifically for premium synthetic or leather footwear, ensuring you dab rather than scrub vigorously. Keep the shoes in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight to prevent yellowing of the lighter materials over time.
