Proper care extends the life and performance of your running shoes:
Cleaning: Gently wipe the upper with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes that could damage the knitted material.
Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators), which can cause materials to shrink or crack. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid leaving them in damp environments to prevent odor and mildew.
Odor Control: For persistent odors, use shoe deodorizers or place baking soda in the shoes overnight (remove before wear).
