How do I store these sneakers to maintain their condition?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, ideally using shoe trees to maintain their shape and prevent creasing. Keep them in their original box or a dust bag.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the leather upper

Creasing is a natural sign of wear on leather. To minimize it, use shoe trees when not in use. Avoid flexing the shoes excessively during wear.

Discoloration of the purple accents

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap only when necessary.

Squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components. Try applying a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole if accessible, or around the tongue area.

Difficulty lacing

Ensure laces are threaded smoothly through the eyelets. If eyelets feel tight, gently flex the shoe or use a lace hook tool if available.
