Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions ### Setup - Lacing: Unlace the trainers sufficiently, slide your foot in, and then lace them up to a comfortable tightness. The high-top design means you might need to loosen the laces more than with low-cut shoes. - Initial Wear: Wear them for short periods initially to allow the material to conform to your foot and for you to get accustomed to the ankle support. ### Compatibility - Sizing: These trainers are listed as UK size 5.5 (Male, Adult). Vans typically run true to size, but individual foot shapes can vary. - Style: Perfectly complements casual, streetwear, and skate-inspired fashion. - Footwear: Wear with socks appropriate for high-top trainers to prevent rubbing and enhance comfort. ### Care - Cleaning: For routine cleaning, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, gently wipe the canvas and suede sections with a damp cloth and mild soap (specifically designed for footwear). Avoid harsh chemicals. - Drying: Air dry away from direct heat or sunlight to prevent material damage or fading. - Protection: Consider using a protective spray suitable for canvas and suede to repel water and stains, helping to maintain their appearance over time. - Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to preserve the materials.
