Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your 1906R sneakers:
Cleaning: For general cleaning, use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cold water. Gently scrub soiled areas. For tougher stains, a specialized sneaker cleaner can be used.
Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or using heat sources (like a dryer or radiator), as this can damage materials and adhesives.
Odor Control: If odors develop, remove the insoles and let them air out. Shoe deodorizers or baking soda can also help absorb moisture and neutralize smells.
Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
Avoid Submerging: Do not submerge the entire shoe in water, as this can affect the midsole cushioning and overall structure.
