Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your New Balance 990 V6 leather sneakers.
Regular Cleaning: After each wear, gently brush off any loose dirt or dust with a soft-bristled brush.
Leather Cleaning: For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner. Apply a small amount to a clean, soft cloth and gently wipe down the leather sections. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Conditioning: To keep the leather supple and prevent cracking, apply a leather conditioner every few months or as needed. This replenishes natural oils.
Sole Care: Clean the outsoles with a damp cloth or soft brush to remove dirt and maintain non-slip effectiveness. Ensure no debris is lodged in the tread.
Drying: If your shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can dry out and crack the leather.
Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
Avoid Submersion: Do not machine wash or fully submerge these shoes in water, as it can damage the leather and structural integrity.
