Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, ensure you select your standard adult UK shoe size, as the 471 series typically runs true to size. To maintain the integrity of the suede upper, avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemical cleaners. It is recommended to use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust after each wear. If the trainers encounter mud, allow it to dry completely before gently brushing it off. For deeper stains, use a suede-specific eraser or cleaning solution designed for delicate materials. Store the trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the beige colour from fading over time.
