Given the suede material of your ASICS Gel-NYC Trainers, proper care is essential to maintain their appearance and longevity.
Initial Protection: Consider applying a high-quality suede protector spray before first wear. This helps repel water and stains.
Cleaning:
For surface dirt, use a dedicated suede brush to gently brush away debris in one direction.
For stubborn marks, a suede eraser can be used.
Avoid using water directly on suede as it can leave marks. If they get wet, blot gently with a clean cloth and let them air dry away from direct heat.
For deeper cleaning, use a specialized suede cleaner following the product instructions.
Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources like radiators, as these can damage the material and adhesives.
Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry your suede trainers.
