Setup, Compatibility & Care
As these are casual low shoes, no technical setup is required. To ensure compatibility, verify your UK foot size as these follow standard adult sizing. For long-term care, it is essential to treat the suede with a protective spray before the first wear to guard against water and dirt. Use a soft-bristled suede brush regularly to remove dust and maintain the nap of the material. Avoid soaking the shoes in water; if they get wet, stuff them with paper to absorb moisture and let them dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
