Proper care is essential to extend the life and maintain the aesthetic appeal of your New Balance 993 MR993NV shoes, especially due to the suede components.
Cleaning Suede Areas:
Use a specialized soft suede brush to gently remove loose dirt and dust. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap.
For tougher or set-in stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions carefully. Apply sparingly.
Important: Avoid saturating suede with water, as this can lead to discoloration, stiffening, or damage to the material.
Cleaning Mesh Areas:
Prepare a mild cleaning solution by mixing a small amount of gentle soap (like dish soap) with cool water.
Using a soft cloth or sponge lightly dampened with the solution, gently wipe down the mesh sections.
Rinse by wiping with a clean, damp cloth to remove any soap residue.
Drying: Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally. Keep them away from direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, direct sunlight, hairdryers) as these can damage materials. Stuffing the shoes with newspaper can help absorb excess moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
Protection: To enhance water and stain resistance, consider applying a suede and fabric protector spray. Apply it before the first wear and periodically thereafter, following the product's instructions.
Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their original shape and absorb moisture.
Warning: Do not machine wash or machine dry these shoes. This can severely damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the footwear, voiding any potential warranty.
