To keep your ASICS GEL-1130 sneakers looking their best and extend their lifespan, follow these care guidelines:
Cleaning: For the synthetic leather upper, gently wipe dirt and marks with a soft, damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the material. For tougher stains, a specialized sneaker cleaner designed for synthetic materials can be used.
Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning by hand washing with soap and water, then air dry.
Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause materials to warp or crack. Do not put them in a dryer.
Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape. Avoid storing them in direct sunlight for prolonged periods.
Deep Cleaning (Occasional): For a deeper clean, remove insoles and wash them separately. You can use a soft brush to gently scrub the outsoles to remove accumulated dirt and grime.
Avoid Washing Machine: Do not machine wash your sneakers, as this can damage the structure, adhesives, and materials of the shoe.
