Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup
- Unlace the trainers fully.
- Insert your foot, ensuring your heel sits comfortably in the back of the shoe.
- Adjust the tongue and laces for a snug, but not tight, fit.
- Tie the laces securely.
Compatibility
These trainers are highly versatile and complement a wide range of outfits:
- Pair with jeans or shorts for a classic casual look.
- Combine with chinos or trousers for a smart-casual ensemble.
- Can complement casual skirts or dresses for a relaxed, stylish outfit.
Care and Maintenance
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe down the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth after each use to remove surface dirt.
- Deep Cleaning: For stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft brush or cloth, following product instructions. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner every few weeks or months to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking.
- Protection: Consider a water and stain protector spray specifically designed for leather to guard against spills and light rain.
- Drying: If trainers get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to maintain shape and prevent creasing and odors.
