Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These sneakers require no setup. They are ready to wear out of the box.
Compatibility: Suitable for adult males. The sizing is provided in UK men's shoe sizes. The black leather upper is designed to interact with wear, so it is compatible with regular foot movement and light outdoor conditions. Avoid prolonged exposure to excessive moisture, which could accelerate or alter the wear-away paint effect.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away surface dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the paint and underlying artwork.
- Managing Wear-Away: The wear-away effect is intentional. If you wish to preserve the initial black coating for longer, minimize scuffing and abrasion. If you want to expedite the reveal of the artwork, engage in activities that naturally cause wear to the upper, such as regular walking.
- Lace Cleaning: Laces can be removed and hand-washed with mild soap and water.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in the original special-edition box, away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
