Proper care is crucial to maintain the 'buttery leather' and overall appearance of your sneakers.
Regular Cleaning: After each wear, gently wipe down the leather upper with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and light dirt.
Deep Cleaning (Leather): For stubborn dirt, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner. Apply a small amount to a soft cloth and gently rub in circular motions. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes that can damage the leather.
Sole Cleaning: Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and a mild soap solution (or sneaker cleaner) to clean the rubber sole. Wipe clean with a damp cloth.
Drying: Always air dry your sneakers away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, as these can cause the leather to crack or fade.
Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and prevent creasing when not in use.
Protection: Consider applying a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather and suede to offer an extra layer of protection.
