Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Pegasus 42 trainers last, follow these maintenance steps:
- Initial Fit: Ensure the classic lacing system is adjusted evenly across the bridge of the foot to avoid pressure points.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use mild soap and water with a cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using a washing machine.
- Drying: Air dry naturally at room temperature. Never place shoes in a dryer or near direct heat sources, as extreme temperatures can deform the foam midsole and damage the adhesive.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the materials.
