Using these shoes is easy. Just lace them up with the star lacing for a secure fit and you're ready to go, whether it's for a run or a workout. When wearing them, make sure your feet are clean and dry to avoid discomfort. As for maintenance, it's a good idea to wipe them down with a damp cloth after each use to keep them clean. Don't put them in the washing machine or dryer as this might damage the 3 - layer mesh and other components. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use. Also, check the soles regularly for wear and tear, and if you notice excessive damage, it might be time to get a new pair.
