Care
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your leather SL 72s:
- Regular Cleaning: After each use, wipe off any loose dirt or dust with a soft, dry brush or cloth.
- Spot Cleaning: For light marks on the leather, use a soft, damp cloth with a small amount of mild leather cleaner. Wipe gently, then buff dry with a clean cloth.
- Deep Cleaning: For stubborn dirt, use a dedicated leather cleaning solution according to the product instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather soft, prevent cracking, and maintain its luster. Follow the conditioner's instructions.
- Drying: If they get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat or sunlight.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Avoid Submersion: Do not machine wash or submerge the trainers in water, as this can damage the leather and internal structure.
