Given the suede upper, proper care is essential to maintain the appearance and longevity of your trainers:
Read Care Label: Always refer to the specific care label inside your trainers for detailed instructions.
Regular Cleaning:
Brushing: Use a soft-bristled suede brush (or a dedicated suede cleaning brush) to gently brush off loose dirt and dust. Always brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the suede.
Spot Cleaning: For minor marks, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner. Apply sparingly and follow the product's instructions.
Deep Cleaning: For tougher stains, a professional suede cleaner or a dedicated suede cleaning kit is recommended. Avoid using water or harsh detergents directly on suede, as this can damage the material.
Protection: Apply a suede protector spray before first wear and periodically thereafter. This helps repel water and prevent stains.
Drying: If your trainers get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
DO NOT machine wash or tumble dry your suede trainers.
