How should I clean the synthetic leather on my GEL-1130 sneakers?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel uncomfortable after extended wear.
Ensure you have the correct size. Try experimenting with different types of socks or after-market insoles for added cushioning specific to your foot shape. If discomfort persists, check for any pressure points from lacing.
Soles appear to be losing grip or becoming slippery.
Clean the rubber outsole thoroughly to remove any embedded dirt, debris, or oil buildup. A stiff brush and mild soapy water can restore traction. Inspect the sole for excessive wear that might indicate it's time for new footwear.
Synthetic leather parts look dull or have light stains.
Gently wipe the affected areas with a soft cloth dampened with water and a tiny drop of mild soap. For tougher stains, use a dedicated sneaker cleaner designed for synthetic materials, following product instructions carefully. Avoid using abrasive cloths or harsh chemicals.
Shoes develop an odor.
Remove insoles and allow them and the shoes to air out completely. You can use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes (let it sit overnight, then shake out) to absorb odors. Ensure shoes dry thoroughly after use.

Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your ASICS GEL-1130:
- Cleaning the Upper: For the synthetic leather inserts and mesh, use a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap (e.g., dish soap diluted in water). Gently wipe away dirt and stains. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or scrubbing too vigorously, as this can damage the material.
- Cleaning the Outsole: Use a stiff brush (like an old toothbrush) and water with a mild soap to scrub the rubber bottom. This will help remove accumulated dirt and maintain traction.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Do not put them in a dryer.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid storing them in direct sunlight for extended periods to prevent material degradation and discoloration.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash your ASICS GEL-1130 shoes, as this can damage their structure and materials.
