To ensure your adidas Samba XLG Trainers last, proper care is important. The main instruction for cleaning is to Wipe clean with a damp cloth. For the leather and suede upper, follow these tips:
General Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt and grime from both the leather and rubber sole. Avoid saturating the materials.
Suede Areas: For the suede t-bar overlay, use a soft brush (like a dedicated suede brush) to remove dry dirt. For tougher marks, very gently dab with a slightly damp cloth, but avoid rubbing aggressively to prevent damaging the nap.
Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
