Clean: Brush off dry dirt with a soft brush, then wipe the vegan leather panels and outsoles with warm soapy water and a cloth. For the mesh, use a soft brush or cloth with warm soapy water, working gently so you don't fuzz the weave, and dab away the soap with a clean damp cloth. Remove the laces first and wash them separately by hand. Never put your trainers in the washing machine. Drying: Take out the insoles and let both trainers and insoles dry naturally at room temperature, away from radiators and direct heat. Stuffing them with paper helps hold the shape and draw moisture out of the mesh. Give them a day or so to dry fully inside before wearing again. Deodorising: Don't let your trainers stay damp between wears, as this can let microbes develop and cause smells — especially in a mesh shoe that's worked hard. If a smell develops, dry them fully and use a footwear deodoriser until it clears. The removable insoles can be taken out and aired between wears, which goes a long way on its own. In extreme cases, wash the insides and insoles with warm soapy water, dry thoroughly, and reapply the deodoriser. Insoles: The removable PU sports insoles take the most moisture and impact, and can lose their cushioning over time. They lift out for airing or cleaning, and can be replaced with a fresh pair when they've done their miles. Mud & trails: If they come back from a run or trail properly muddy, let the mud dry first, brush it off dry, then clean as above — it's easier and kinder to the mesh than washing wet mud through it.
