Proper care is essential to maintain the premium look and longevity of your suede Gazelle Indoor sneakers:
Immediate Protection: Before first wear, consider applying a high-quality suede protector spray. This helps repel water and stains.
Regular Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush off dirt and dust after each wear. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap.
Spot Cleaning: For minor marks, use a suede eraser. Gently rub the eraser over the mark.
Deep Cleaning: For tougher stains, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for the material. Follow the product's instructions carefully.
Drying: If your sneakers get wet, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources.
Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees or paper stuffing to help maintain their shape.
Avoid Water: Suede is sensitive to water. Try to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions.
