Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your California 78 EX trainers last as long as possible, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust and a damp cloth for minor stains on the exterior materials. Avoid fully submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the vintage-inspired fabrics and dyes. Check your specific size—this model is listed in UK adult sizing—to ensure an optimal, secure fit upon arrival.
