Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are standard lace-up trainers, no complex setup is required. To maintain the appearance of your white and blue trainers:
- Cleaning: Wipe away surface dirt with a soft, damp cloth after use.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not submerge in water or use aggressive detergents that could damage the synthetic materials or upper mesh.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature; avoid direct heat sources like radiators, as these can warp the sole and deteriorate the glue.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration of the white components.
