Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

Troubleshooting
Leather scuff marks
Gently buff the affected area with a soft cloth. For deeper scuffs, use a specialized leather repair product or consult a professional shoe repair service.
Mesh material appears dirty
Use a soft-bristled brush with a small amount of mild soap and water to gently clean the mesh. Blot with a damp cloth to rinse and allow to air dry completely.
Felt insole feels uncomfortable or worn
The insole can be carefully removed for cleaning. If significant wear is present, consider replacing it with a compatible aftermarket insole for continued comfort.
Color transfer from darker parts
This can occur in humid conditions or with prolonged friction. Ensure the shoes are dry and avoid prolonged contact with light-colored clothing or surfaces until the color stabilizes.
