Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the RC56 utilizes nylon materials, maintenance is straightforward. To keep your pair looking new, wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove surface dust. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the internal structure of the shoe. For the best fit, ensure you select your standard UK size, and allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat sources such as radiators, which can warp the materials over time.
