Troubleshooting
Outer material showing water spots
Lightly blot with a dry cloth and allow to air dry away from direct heat sources.
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure the flat laces are double-knotted or tightened evenly across the eyelets to maintain tension.
Loss of cushion comfort
Check if the factory insole has shifted; remove and re-seat it properly inside the shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Karhu Legacy 96 trainers last, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Like most high-quality sneakers, allow for a short period of wear to let the materials mold to your foot shape.
- Care: Avoid machine washing. For suede components, use a dedicated suede brush to remove dried dirt. For ripstop and mesh, use a soft cloth with mild soap and cold water.
- Waterproofing: While the trainers feature water-repellent ripstop, applying a protective spray specifically designed for suede can help preserve the exterior against stains.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the colours from fading.
