To ensure the longevity and appearance of your SL 72 OG Sneakers, follow these care instructions:
General Cleaning: For textile and nylon areas, gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Suede Overlays: Suede requires special attention. Use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt and restore the nap. For stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid getting suede excessively wet.
Drying: Air dry your sneakers away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not put them in a dryer.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees or crumpled paper inside to help maintain their shape.
Protection: Consider using a suede and fabric protector spray suitable for footwear to help repel water and stains, especially before first wear.
