Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Vans Crosspath MTE shoes maintain their appearance and functionality, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes fit true to size. If you plan to wear thick winter socks, consider a half-size increase.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried dirt. For stubborn stains, apply a mild detergent diluted with water using a cloth; avoid submerging them in a washing machine.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the vibrant orange material from fading.
- Care: Apply a water-repellent spray specifically designed for synthetic and blended fabrics to maintain the protective qualities of the MTE build.
