Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your shoes last, follow these care tips:
- Cleaning: Spot clean the canvas with a soft cloth, mild soap, and warm water. Avoid submerging the shoes fully in water.
- Drying: Air dry only in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Do not place them near direct heat sources or in a tumble dryer, as this can degrade the glue and warp the rubber.
- Protection: Consider applying a canvas-safe fabric protector spray before first wear to help repel minor dirt and water spills.
- Compatibility: These shoes are highly versatile and pair effortlessly with denim, chinos, or casual shorts.
