Proper care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of your P-6000 trainers:
Spot Cleaning: For general dirt and dust, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove debris.
Mesh Upper: Clean the breathable mesh with a solution of mild soap and lukewarm water. Use a soft cloth or sponge, gently wiping the affected areas. Avoid saturating the material.
Leather Overlays: Wipe leather sections with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for footwear. Condition the leather periodically to prevent drying and cracking.
Suede Overlays: Suede requires specialized care. Use a suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. For stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid water as it can stain suede; consider a waterproofing spray for protection.
Outsoles: Clean the rubber outsole with a brush and mild soap and water to maintain traction.
Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can damage materials.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
