Troubleshooting
Creasing in the toe box
Use plastic or foam shoe shields inside the toe box during wear to reduce stress on the material.
Scuffs on white surfaces
Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a gentle leather cleaner to buff out surface marks immediately.
Discomfort during initial wear
Wear the shoes for short intervals indoors to allow the material to break in and conform to your foot shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this model uses light-colored panels, proper care is essential. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust after each wear to prevent particles from embedding into the material. For deeper cleaning, use a mild, shoe-specific solution and a microfiber cloth; avoid submerging the shoes in water. To maintain the structural shape, consider using cedar shoe trees when not in use. Ensure your foot size is correctly measured, as the 6 Retro silhouette has a distinct fit compared to modern performance trainers.
