Setup, Compatibility & Care\n\n### Setup\nThe Cloud 6 Waterproof shoes are designed for an easy step-in. Simply unlace slightly, slide your foot in, and adjust the laces for a secure, comfortable fit. Ensure the tongue and sockliner are smooth to prevent pressure points.\n\n### Compatibility\nThese shoes are highly versatile, compatible with a range of activities including:\n* Urban Running: Ideal for short to medium-distance runs on paved surfaces or light trails.\n* Walking & Daily Wear: Excellent comfort for extended periods of standing, walking, or commuting.\n* All-Weather Use: The waterproof membrane makes them suitable for use in damp or rainy conditions.\n\n### Care\nTo maintain the performance and longevity of your Cloud 6 Waterproof shoes:\n1. Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap solution (like dish soap diluted with water) and a soft cloth or sponge. Gently wipe the upper and outsole. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.\n2. Drying: After cleaning or exposure to wet conditions, allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials and waterproof membrane.\n3. Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.\n4. Waterproofing Maintenance: While the membrane is durable, periodically inspecting for any damage to the outer material can help maintain its integrity. If heavily soiled, a gentle clean as described above is usually sufficient to restore the waterproof function of the membrane.\nThe shoe's upper is primarily Polyester, which is known for its durability and quick-drying properties, simplifying care.
