FAQs
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the microsuede material is not waterproof. It is recommended to use a protective spray to make them water-resistant, but they should not be submerged in water.
How do I clean the rubber sole?
Use a mild detergent mixed with water and a soft brush to scrub the rubber sole, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
Does the microsuede stretch over time?
Like most soft materials, microsuede may offer slight flexibility with wear, but it generally maintains its shape well.
Can I use these for running or the gym?
These trainers are designed for lifestyle and casual use and are not intended for high-impact athletic activities or heavy training sessions.
What is the best way to store these shoes?
Store them in a breathable shoe bag or a cool, dry area. Avoid keeping them near radiators or direct heat sources, as this can damage the glue on the rubber soles.
Troubleshooting
Surface marks on the microsuede
Use a dry suede brush or a specialized eraser block to gently buff away dry dirt or scuffs.
Difficulty putting the trainers on
Ensure the laces or zip components are fully loosened to avoid stretching the upper material during entry.
Dirt on the bone patent panels
Gently wipe the patent areas with a microfiber cloth slightly dampened with lukewarm water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your trainers in optimal condition, treat the microsuede upper with a specialized suede protector spray before the first use to repel moisture and dirt. For cleaning, use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dust and dry mud; avoid using water or standard leather soaps on the microsuede sections as this may cause staining. The patent panels can be wiped down with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface marks. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the microsuede color from fading.
