Care: Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your trainers:
Uppers (Polyurethane, Textile, Suede): For general cleaning, gently wipe the polyurethane and textile sections with a damp cloth. For suede areas, use a soft-bristled brush or a specialized suede cleaner to remove dirt and restore the nap. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners.
Lining & Cushioning (Polyester): These areas can be spot cleaned with a mild soap solution and a soft cloth, then air-dried.
Sole (Rubber): Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth or soft brush to remove dirt and debris, which helps maintain traction.
Drying: Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the materials and construction.
