Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Yeezy 500s stay in top condition, keep them away from harsh weather and moisture, as the suede upper is susceptible to water staining. If the shoes become dirty, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust and dirt from the suede and mesh sections. Avoid machine washing or using high-heat drying, as this can degrade the leather and adhesive. For storage, keep them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent color fading. If you find the fit slightly tight, consider wearing thinner socks until the materials break in.
