Caring for your New Balance 2002R M2002RCC is crucial due to its suede and mesh construction:
Initial Protection: Consider applying a high-quality suede and fabric protector spray before the first wear. This creates a barrier against water and stains.
Regular Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush (like a suede brush) to gently remove loose dirt and dust from the suede and mesh surfaces. Brush in one direction to maintain the suede's nap.
Spot Cleaning Suede: For stubborn marks, use a specialized suede eraser or a small amount of dedicated suede cleaner applied with a clean cloth. Dab, don't rub, and allow to air dry away from direct heat.
Cleaning Mesh: For mesh areas, use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth or brush. Gently scrub the mesh, then wipe with a damp cloth.
Drying: Always allow shoes to air dry naturally. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, which can damage materials.
Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
Avoid Water: Suede is highly susceptible to water damage. Try to avoid wearing these sneakers in heavy rain or wet conditions. If they do get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to dry naturally.
