With the right approach and a bit of care, you can ensure a comfortable fit and lasting wear.
FINDING THE PERFECT FIT
Before diving into breaking in your new shoes, ensure you've got the right fit. A properly fitting shoe should feel snug at the heel and midfoot, with wiggle room around the toes.
TAKE IT SLOW
Start by wearing your new shoes for short periods, gradually increasing wear time. Wear them around the house initially, so you can easily take them off if discomfort arises.
For leather styles, wearing thick socks offers added cushioning and aids in accelerating the softening process.
TIGHTEN UP THOSE LACES
Keep your laces snug to encourage the shoe to mold to your foot and prevent slipping and rubbing.
SILENCE THE SQUEAK
Squeaky shoes are often due to moisture or friction. To fix this, use baby or talcum powder. Where possible, sprinkle powder inside, and let it sit overnight. Shake out excess powder the next day.
KEEP UP THE CARE
We recommend using a sneaker protector to form a barrier against dirt and stains, making cleaning easier. For cleaning, promptly remove excess dirt or moisture to prevent long-term damage, always use cleaning products specifically designed for sneakers, and avoid washing them in the machine, as this can damage fastenings and glue.
