Care Instructions:
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Nike Shox TL:
Cleaning the Upper: For the nylon mesh, gently wipe down with a soft, damp cloth using a mild soap solution if necessary. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive materials.
Cleaning the Sole: Use a brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and debris from the Shox columns and rubber outsole. A small amount of dish soap can help with stubborn grime.
Drying: Always allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage materials.
Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Consider using shoe trees to maintain their shape.
Avoid Submerging: Do not machine wash or submerge the shoes in water, as this can damage the cushioning system and adhesives.
