What is the expected lifespan of the rubber outsole?

The lifespan of the rubber outsole depends on usage frequency and intensity. Regular cleaning and avoiding excessive abrasion will help prolong its life.

Troubleshooting

Slight stiffness upon first wear

Wear the trainers for short periods initially to allow the materials to soften and mold to your feet. Gentle stretching exercises can also help.

Canvas appears dirty

Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap to gently clean the affected areas. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.

Outsole losing grip

Ensure the outsole is clean from mud or debris. If wear is significant, it may indicate the natural end of the outsole's lifespan.
