Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Adistar MLD trainers remain in top condition, follow these steps:
- Breaking In: These shoes generally fit true to size. Wear them for short sessions initially to allow the synthetic and textile upper to mold comfortably to your foot shape.
- Lacing: Adjust the laces evenly from the bottom up to ensure the tension is distributed across the instep for maximum stability.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt. For deeper stains, use a mild soap and cold water solution on a cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using high-heat drying methods, as this may degrade the adhesive components.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the vibrancy of the blue textile materials.
