FAQs
What makes the outsole special?
The outsole features a variety of strategically placed rubber textures, each designed to provide optimal grip and durability on different urban surfaces, enhancing stability in varied conditions.
Is this shoe suitable for hiking?
The Ace City Shell Lo is designed primarily for urban exploration. While it offers good grip and durability for city environments, it may not provide the specialized support or ruggedness required for serious hiking trails.
How should I store these shoes when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. It's recommended to keep them in a breathable bag or their original box to maintain their shape and protect them from dust.
Can I machine wash these shoes?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the shoes. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.
What is the intended fit of the Ace City Shell Lo?
The shoes are designed for a standard unisex fit. It's recommended to consult a sizing chart or try them on if possible to ensure the best fit, considering the specific UK size you are purchasing.
How resilient is the micro ripstop upper?
The micro ripstop upper is engineered for high resilience, offering resistance to tearing and ripping, making it ideal for the daily wear and tear of urban environments.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight during the first wear.
This is common with new footwear. Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow them to stretch and mold to your feet. Avoid prolonged wear until they feel comfortable.
Traction seems less effective on very smooth, polished surfaces.
While the outsole is designed for varied textures, extremely smooth surfaces can challenge any footwear. Exercise caution and ensure the shoes are clean of debris that might affect grip.
Water resistance is reduced after cleaning.
Ensure the shoes are completely dry before applying a water and stain repellent spray. Reapply the spray periodically, especially after cleaning or exposure to wet conditions.
