Setup, Compatibility & Care
Out of the box, the Centennial 85 Low ADV is ready for immediate wear. To ensure compatibility with your daily activities, pair these with casual trousers or shorts to highlight their low-top silhouette. To maintain the integrity of the suede upper, it is highly recommended to use a protective suede spray before the first wear to repel moisture and dust. If the shoes become dirty, avoid submerging them in water. Instead, use a specialized suede brush or a soft eraser to gently lift debris from the nap of the material. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
