FAQs
How do I clean the metallic silver surface without damaging it?
Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as they can scratch or dull the metallic finish. For tougher marks, a mild soap diluted in water can be used, followed by a rinse with a clean damp cloth and air drying.
Are these trainers suitable for athletic performance?
While they are inspired by performance silhouettes and feature breathable elements, the experimental and artistic design, particularly the metallic finish, makes them primarily suited for casual wear and fashion statements rather than intense athletic activities.
What kind of outfits do these trainers best complement?
These trainers excel when paired with outfits that allow them to stand out. Think solid-colored t-shirts, simple hoodies, black or grey joggers, or slim-fit jeans. They can add a futuristic or artistic touch to streetwear looks.
How durable is the metallic finish?
The metallic finish is designed to be eye-catching but can be susceptible to scuffs or scratches if subjected to rough wear or impact. Proper care and avoiding abrasive contact will help maintain its appearance.
What does the 'Brain Dead' collaboration signify?
The collaboration with Brain Dead signifies an artistic and unconventional approach to footwear design. Brain Dead is known for reinterpreting technical and cultural elements into expressive and unique aesthetics, which is reflected in the avant-garde design of these trainers.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
It is generally not recommended to wear trainers with metallic finishes in heavy rain or wet conditions. Moisture can affect the materials and potentially damage the reflective coating over time. It's best to keep them dry.
What is the primary benefit of the Climacool technology in these shoes?
The primary benefit of the Climacool technology is enhanced breathability and ventilation. This helps keep your feet cool and comfortable, especially in warmer temperatures or during periods of light activity.
Troubleshooting
Metallic finish appears dull or smudged
Gently clean the affected area with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a dedicated sneaker cleaner suitable for metallic finishes, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Unusual odor developing inside the shoe
Remove the insoles and allow both the insoles and the shoes to air out separately in a well-ventilated area. Sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors, then shake out before wearing.
Discomfort or rubbing in specific areas
Ensure you have the correct size. If the shoe is the right size but still causes discomfort, try wearing thicker socks or using specialized insoles for added cushioning and support. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods initially.
Laces becoming dirty or frayed
Clean laces with mild soap and water, or replace them with new laces to refresh the shoe's appearance. Ensure laces are tied at a comfortable tension, not too tight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:

Compatibility:
These trainers are designed for general adult use. They are compatible with most casual wear, including jeans, shorts, joggers, and athleisure outfits. Their unconventional design pairs best with solid colours or simpler patterns to avoid clashing.
Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt and smudges from the metallic surface. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the finish.
- Lining and Insoles: If removable, clean insoles separately with a mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry completely. For the lining, spot clean with a damp cloth.
- Outsole: Use a brush or damp cloth to clean the rubber sole. Stubborn dirt may require a specialized sneaker cleaner.
- Drying: Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can warp or damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the colour and material integrity. Consider using shoe trees to maintain shape.
