To maintain your ASICS GEL-DEDICATE 8 Clay Tennis Shoes:
Cleaning: After use, gently wipe down the synthetic leather upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt and clay. For tougher spots, a mild soap solution can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Drying: 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. Consider using shoe trees or stuffing with newspaper to help maintain their shape.
Odour Control: If odours develop, remove insoles and air them out separately. Shoe deodorizers can also be used.
