Proper care extends the life and maintains the performance of your running shoes:
Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush after runs. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap (like dish soap) mixed with water and a soft cloth or sponge. Lightly scrub the upper and sole.
Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources (like radiators), as this can damage materials.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Avoid Machine Washing: Machine washing can damage the shoe's structure, glues, and technical components.
Composition: The shoe is composed of a textile and synthetic upper, textile lining, textile inner sole, and a rubber outer sole. Refer to these materials when selecting cleaning products.
