Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials and construction. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.
What is the main style inspiration for this shoe?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
Wear the trainers for short periods initially to allow the materials to break in. Gradually increase wear time as they become more comfortable.
White material shows dirt easily.
Regularly clean the shoes using a damp cloth and mild soap as described in the Care section. Consider using a protective spray designed for white footwear.
Laces become worn or dirty.
Replace laces with standard trainer laces of a similar length. Clean existing laces by hand with soap and water.
Sole appears scuffed.
Minor scuffs on the rubber sole can sometimes be buffed out with a magic eraser or a specialized sole cleaner. For deeper scuffs, they are a sign of normal wear.
