To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Air Max 1 Essential shoes:
Cleaning: Gently wipe the synthetic leather and suede sections with a soft, damp cloth. For mesh areas, use a soft brush and mild soap solution. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Drying: Always allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage materials.
Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
Protection: Consider applying a protective spray suitable for mixed materials (leather, suede, mesh) to repel water and stains, following product instructions carefully.
