FAQs
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed from monofilament engineered mesh with RPU (Resistant Polyurethane) overlays for structure and durability.
Does the RPU cage offer any protection?
Yes, the RPU cage provides structural support and durability to the sides of the shoe, enhancing its resilience.
How should I clean the glow-in-the-dark elements?
The glow-in-the-dark elements are part of the RPU cage. Clean them gently with a damp cloth. Prolonged exposure to light is needed for them to glow.
Is the sizing true to size?
Yeezy sizing can sometimes vary. It is recommended to check reviews or consult size charts and potentially try them on if possible, as they fit differently than standard athletic shoes.
What is the purpose of the herringbone rubber outsole?
The herringbone pattern on the rubber outsole is designed to provide excellent traction and durability, ensuring a stable grip on various surfaces.
Can these be worn in wet weather?
While the materials offer some resilience, it's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve their longevity and appearance. The mesh upper is not waterproof.
What is the main aesthetic appeal of the Alvah model?
The Alvah model is known for its futuristic, dark-toned aesthetic, characterized by the RPU cage, unique layering, and the distinct silhouette.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Consider wearing thinner socks or breaking them in gradually with short periods of wear.
Glow-in-the-dark feature not working
The glow-in-the-dark feature requires exposure to light to 'charge'. Wear the shoes in sunlight or under a bright light source for a period, then take them into a dark environment to observe the effect.
Dirt or scuff marks on RPU cage
Gently wipe the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher marks, a magic eraser can be used with caution, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Laces seem worn or dirty
Laces can be carefully removed, hand-washed with mild detergent, and air-dried. Replacement laces are also readily available.
