Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best performance, ensure you are wearing appropriate socks for your activity level to optimize the fit. Since this model includes various material finishes like suede, it is important to avoid submersion in water. To care for your trainers, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the surface. For deeper stains on suede components, use a specialized suede eraser or cleaner. Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to maintain the integrity of the adhesive and materials.
