Troubleshooting

Slight stiffness on first wear

The shoe may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow the materials to conform to your foot.

Reduced cushioning effect over time

Cushioning can degrade with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes if they have been used for many miles or if the cushioning feels significantly diminished.

Discoloration of materials

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can fade colors. Clean according to care instructions to maintain material integrity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear shoes. No specific setup is required.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult foot sizes. While designed as trainers, their cushioning and support make them compatible with various walking and running activities. They are not intended for highly specialized sports that require specific footwear.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to gently clean the mesh and leather surfaces. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
  2. Insoles: If removable, hand wash insoles with mild soap and water, and allow them to air dry completely.
  3. Outsole: Clean the rubber outsole with water and a brush to remove dirt and debris.
  4. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box to maintain shape and protect from dust.
