Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your Converse 1908 Joggers, especially given their nylon and suede components.
Initial Protection: Consider applying a suede and fabric protector spray before the first wear to guard against water and stains.
Regular Cleaning: For light dirt, gently brush the suede areas with a suede brush to remove loose particles. For nylon, a soft, damp cloth can usually wipe away surface dirt.
Spot Cleaning: For tougher stains on suede, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner following product instructions. For nylon, a mild soap solution with a soft brush or cloth can be used. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.
Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat (like radiators or sunlight) as this can damage the materials.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
Avoid Washing Machine: Do not put your Converse 1908 Joggers in a washing machine, as this can severely damage the materials and construction.
Deep Cleaning: For significant dirt or stains, consider professional shoe cleaning services for suede and nylon footwear.
