Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: After use, remove loose dirt and mud with a soft brush or a dry cloth. For tougher stains, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: If the shoes become wet, stuff them with newspaper or paper towels to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or fires, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are clean and dry before long-term storage.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: While RAIN.RDY is durable, avoid aggressive cleaning methods that could compromise the waterproof membrane. Periodically check the seams and materials for any signs of wear.
