Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your 1906R shoes:
Cleaning: Gently wipe the mesh and synthetic overlays with a soft brush or cloth dampened with mild soap and cool water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight), which can damage materials. Do not machine wash or machine dry.
Insoles: Remove insoles periodically to air them out, which helps prevent odors.
Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
Avoid Submersion: While durable, the mesh upper is not waterproof. Avoid fully submerging the shoes in water.
