Maintaining your Nike AL8 Trainers, especially their suede and mesh components, will extend their lifespan and appearance:
Regular Cleaning: For daily dirt, gently brush off loose debris with a soft-bristled brush.
Suede Care: For suede sections, use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap and remove superficial dirt. For deeper stains, a specialized suede cleaner following product instructions is recommended. Avoid excessive water directly on suede.
Mesh Cleaning: For mesh areas, a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth or brush can be used. Gently wipe or scrub, then blot dry.
Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat or sunlight, which can damage materials.
Protection: Consider applying a water and stain repellent spray, particularly for the suede, to provide an extra layer of protection against elements and spills.
