Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your trainers:
Cleaning: Gently wipe the textile and synthetic upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. For leather sections, use a specialized leather cleaner. Avoid submerging the entire shoe in water.
Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators), as this can damage materials.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use harsh detergents, bleach, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the materials and colors.
Odour Control: If needed, use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.
