Troubleshooting
Accumulation of debris in the outsole tread
Use a stiff-bristled brush to gently dislodge gravel or dirt from the rubber channels.
Visible scuff marks on the grey mesh
Gently blot the area with a cloth dampened with cool water and a very mild detergent; avoid scrubbing to prevent fraying.
Reduced grip on smooth surfaces
Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth to remove surface dust that may be affecting traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Proper care will ensure the longevity of your GT-2160 trainers. Ensure the shoes are properly laced to utilize the IGS technology, which helps maintain natural foot alignment. To clean, remove loose dirt from the outsole using a soft brush. Wipe the mesh upper with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid submerging the shoes in water or using a washing machine, as this can degrade the integrity of the adhesive and foam materials. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent the materials from warping or becoming brittle.
