FAQs
How long does the glow-in-the-dark effect last?
The intensity of the glow depends on the duration and type of light exposure. The effect is temporary and will naturally fade over time, requiring re-exposure to light to reactivate. Consistent and proper care is crucial to maintaining the phosphorescent properties.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
It is recommended to avoid wearing these trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions. Excessive moisture can damage the calf leather and potentially affect the glow-in-the-dark coating. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally.
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
These trainers are designed primarily for fashion and casual wear. While they offer comfort and grip for daily activities, they are not intended for high-impact athletic performance or sports.
What is the best way to clean the Off-White strap?
The Off-White signature strap can be cleaned using a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid pulling or stretching the strap excessively during cleaning.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
Refer to the size guide provided by Off-White. These trainers are listed in UK sizing. It's recommended to measure your foot and compare it with the brand's specific sizing chart for the best fit, as styles can vary.
What material is the sole made of?
The sole is made of 100% rubber, designed to provide good traction and durability for everyday use.
How do I store these trainers to preserve their unique features?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape. Ensure they are clean before long-term storage.
Troubleshooting
Glow effect is weak or not visible
Ensure the sneakers have been exposed to a sufficient light source (natural or artificial) for at least 30 minutes before entering a dark environment. Re-expose to light as needed. Avoid prolonged storage in complete darkness.
Leather appears dull or dirty
Gently clean the surface with a soft, slightly damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for white or delicate leathers, testing in an inconspicuous area first. Avoid soaking the material.
Tread pattern on the outsole is wearing down
This is normal wear and tear for any footwear. To maximize outsole life, avoid excessive friction or abrasive surfaces. Ensure the shoes are clean after each wear.
Shoe maintains an odor
Air out the shoes regularly in a well-ventilated area. Use cedar shoe trees to absorb moisture and odor. Baking soda can also be used as an odor absorber when placed inside the shoes overnight (ensure it's removed thoroughly before wearing).
