Troubleshooting

Hook-and-loop fastener not gripping securely

Ensure the Velcro surfaces are clean and free from debris. Use a small brush to remove trapped particles. If the Velcro is worn, it may lose effectiveness over time.

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Adjust the hook-and-loop strap to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. Experiment with different levels of tightness.

Discoloration of the textile upper

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, following care instructions.

Squeaking noise during walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components or moisture. Ensure the shoes are completely dry. A light powder inside might help in some cases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for general adult use. They are compatible with a wide range of casual outfits, including jeans, shorts, and athleisure wear. While suitable for light athletic activities, they are not specialized for high-impact sports.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the textile upper with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
  2. Cleaning the Sole: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For the rubber sole, a damp cloth is usually sufficient.
  3. Hook-and-Loop Fastener: Regularly check the Velcro straps for debris like lint or small stones. Clean using a small brush or an old toothbrush to ensure optimal grip.
  4. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
