Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gazelle trainers maintain their look, follow these care steps:
- Initial Protection: Before the first wear, apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray to create a protective barrier.
- Cleaning: For dry dirt, use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently lift debris. Do not soak the suede in water.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading. Use cedar shoe trees to help maintain the shape.
- Compatibility: These trainers fit true to size. If you plan to wear thick socks, consider this when selecting your size to ensure comfort.
