These shoes are primarily designed for road running and paved surfaces. They are suitable for general fitness activities, walking, and light gym use. While durable, they are not optimized for technical trail running, track spikes, or highly specialized court sports.
Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush (like an old toothbrush). For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cold water solution with a cloth or soft brush. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing, as this can damage materials and adhesives.
Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause materials to shrink or crack. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Odor Control: Remove insoles after runs to allow both the shoe and insole to air out. You can use shoe deodorizers or baking soda to absorb odors.
