FAQs
Is the heel height noticeable while walking?
The 4 cm heel is designed to be subtle and ergonomic, providing height without the instability associated with traditional heels.
Are these sneakers suitable for wide feet?
The adjustable Velcro straps offer a high degree of customization, making them generally accommodating for various foot widths.
How do I keep the geometric pattern looking fresh?
Simply wipe the geometric panels with a slightly damp microfiber cloth to remove dust and maintain the color contrast.
Can I replace the insoles?
The insoles are integrated into the wedge design, so it is recommended to keep the original footbed for the best fit.
Are these shoes heavy?
The Balskee trainers have a sturdy construction, which contributes to their high-fashion look but makes them heavier than standard lightweight trainers.
Troubleshooting
Straps not adhering properly
Check the Velcro surface for trapped lint or debris and remove with a small brush or tweezers.
Leather feeling stiff
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner and wear the shoes for short periods at home to allow the material to soften.
Heel feeling unstable
Ensure the inner Velcro strap is tightened correctly to keep your foot firmly against the footbed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Balskee trainers maintain their appearance, follow these care guidelines: store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather fading. Since they are constructed from premium leather, use a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dirt regularly. For deeper cleaning, apply a leather-specific conditioner to maintain the material's suppleness. Ensure the Velcro straps are aligned correctly when securing them to maintain the integrity of the closure system over time. Avoid fully submerging the sneakers in water, as this can damage the internal padding and leather structure.
