Care Instructions:
Proper care is essential to maintain the appearance and longevity of your New Balance RC42 Trainers, especially given their leather and suede components.
Spot Cleaning: For minor dirt and scuffs, use a soft, damp cloth or a dedicated sneaker cleaner. For suede areas, use a specialized suede brush or eraser.
Leather Care: For leather sections, apply a leather cleaner as needed, followed by a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
Suede Care: Avoid excessive water. Use a suede protector spray before first wear and reapply periodically. Brush the nap of the suede gently to remove dirt and restore texture.
Drying: If trainers get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Air dry at room temperature; avoid direct heat or sunlight.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the materials and construction.
