To maintain the quality and appearance of your leather upper:
Cleaning: For general dirt, wipe the leather gently with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner, following the product's instructions.
Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the leather.
Protection: Consider applying a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains.
Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can cause irreversible damage to the materials and construction.
