Proper care will help maintain the appearance and extend the life of your Barreda Decode Trainers, especially given the suede components.
Initial Protection: Consider applying a suede protector spray before first wear to help repel water and stains.
Regular Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt and dust from the suede and synthetic upper using a soft brush or specialized suede brush.
Spot Cleaning Suede: For stubborn marks on suede, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
Sole Cleaning: Wipe the rubber cup sole with a damp cloth and mild soap (if necessary) to remove dirt.
Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, as excessive heat can damage materials.
Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup and maintain their shape. Using shoe trees can help preserve their form.
Do NOT machine wash or tumble dry. This can damage the materials and construction of the trainers.
