Regular Cleaning: For the mesh and synthetic/suede overlays, use a soft brush or cloth dampened with a mild soap and water solution. Gently scrub away dirt and stains.
Spot Treatment: For tougher spots, a sneaker-specific cleaner can be used, following the product's instructions.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use bleach or harsh detergents, as these can damage materials and colors.
Drying: Always air dry your shoes away from direct heat or sunlight to prevent material warping or damage. Do not put them in a dryer.

Insoles: Remove insoles periodically to air them out and clean if necessary, to help prevent odors.
