Care Instructions To clean your Original Knit, remove all loose dirt with a soft shoe brush. If necessary, go in with a clean, soft brush to apply some lukewarm water and a mild cleaning solution. Wipe any excess product with a moist cloth. Air dry at room temperature after cleaning or when the shoes get wet. Make sure to regularly renew the water-repellent treatment, using a waterproofing spray. For best performance, we also recommend spraying them before you first wear them. The Original Knit is not machine washable, as this removes its water-repellent properties and might cause the upper material to lose its shape. Note: The shoes are not suitable for activities that cause a lot of friction on the sole, as this can damage the soft sole.
