FAQs
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is made from a micro ripstop material, known for its durability and resistance to tearing.
Are these shoes waterproof?
While the micro ripstop material offers some resistance, the shoes are not fully waterproof. They are designed for urban environments and may not perform well in heavy rain or wet conditions without additional waterproofing treatment.
What makes the outsole unique?
The outsole features a specially designed tread pattern with varied textures of rubber, engineered to provide enhanced grip and stability on diverse urban surfaces.
Can I wear these in different weather conditions?
These shoes are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions. They are not intended for heavy snow, ice, or prolonged exposure to significant moisture.
How should I clean the micro ripstop upper?
Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.
What kind of fit can I expect?
The fit is generally true to size for a casual shoe. The low-shoe silhouette allows for comfortable movement. A break-in period might be necessary for optimal comfort.
Is this shoe suitable for hiking?
While the outsole offers good grip, these shoes are primarily designed for urban exploration and casual wear, not for demanding hiking trails.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in period if needed.
Outsole losing grip
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. Mud or excessive dirt can reduce traction. Clean with a damp cloth.
Minor scuffs or marks on the upper
Gently wipe the affected area with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
