How should I clean my GEL-NYC trainers?

Troubleshooting

Torn or frayed laces

Replace laces with standard trainer laces of a similar length. Ensure they are threaded correctly.

Stiffness in the material

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. The materials will soften with use.

Uneven wear on the sole

This may indicate an uneven gait. While the shoe is designed for comfort, significant uneven wear could warrant a professional fitting consultation.

Discomfort after extended wear

Ensure the correct size has been selected and that the lacing provides adequate support. Consider if the shoe's intended use aligns with your activity level.

Compatibility:

These trainers are designed for adult use and are compatible with most casual attire. They are suitable for walking, everyday errands, and light activities.

Care:

  • Cleaning: For general cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  • Suede Care: For suede sections, use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt. For stains, consider a specialized suede cleaner, following product instructions carefully.
  • Drying: If the trainers become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
