How secure is the touch 'n' close fastening?

Can these trainers be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers as it can damage the materials, construction, and the integrity of the checkered pattern and adhesive components.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Check if the touch 'n' close straps are adjusted properly. Allow a short break-in period for the materials to adapt to the foot.

Gently wipe the pattern with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbing, which can damage the print.
