Troubleshooting
Sizing feels off
Ensure you have measured your foot correctly according to standard UK sizing. Consider trying on a pair in-store if possible, or consult sizing charts carefully. As these are trainers, a snug fit is often intended for performance.
Stains or marks on the material
Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. For suede sections, use a specialized suede cleaner and brush. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.
Reduced grip over time
Clean the outsole thoroughly with water and a brush to remove any dirt or debris that might be impacting traction. Check for excessive wear on the tread pattern.
