Care
Given the premium suede material, proper care is crucial to maintain the appearance and longevity of your Gazelle Bold trainers.
- Suede Protection: Before first wear, consider applying a high-quality suede protector spray. This creates a barrier against water and stains. Reapply periodically as per product instructions.
- Regular Cleaning:
- Use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. Brush in one direction to lift the nap.
- For tougher marks, use a suede eraser to gently rub away blemishes.
- For stubborn stains, use a specialized suede cleaner according to its directions, applying sparingly and carefully.
- Avoid Moisture: Suede is highly susceptible to water damage. Avoid wearing your shoes in heavy rain or wet conditions. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Do not force dry.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
- Outsole Cleaning: Wipe the triplestacked rubber outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt and scuff marks. Rinse cloth and wipe again to remove soap residue.
