To ensure the longevity and performance of your Nike Free Metcon 6 shoes, follow these general care guidelines:
Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For stubborn dirt, mix a small amount of mild detergent with cold water. Use a soft cloth or sponge to clean the upper and outsole. Do not submerge the shoes in water.
Drying: Air dry your shoes at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or using artificial heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage materials.
Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. You can use shoe trees or stuff them with crumpled newspaper to help maintain their shape.
Odour Control: If odours develop, remove the insoles and air them out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight.
Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash your shoes as it can damage the materials and adhesives.
