To ensure the longevity and performance of your ASICS Gel-Venture 10 shoes, follow these care guidelines:
Cleaning: After each use, especially on trails, remove loose dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, mix a small amount of mild soap with water. Gently scrub the upper and outsole. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive materials.
Drying: Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Remove the insoles to help them dry faster and prevent odor. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, and avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage materials.
Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight when not in use.
