To ensure the longevity and pristine appearance of your leather trainers, follow these care instructions:
Cleaning the Leather Upper: Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner applied according to its instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials which can damage the leather.
Drying: Always allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, as these can cause the leather to crack or warp.
Conditioning: Periodically apply a high-quality leather conditioner to keep the leather soft, supple, and prevent drying or cracking. This helps maintain its original look and feel.
Cleaning the Sole: Use a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap to clean the rubber gum sole. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry.
Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
