Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your GEL-1130 Trainers:
Cleaning the Upper: For the mesh upper and no-sew reinforcements, use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and a mild soap solution (e.g., diluted dish soap). Gently scrub stained areas. Wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing.
Cleaning the Sole: The rubber sole can be cleaned with a brush and soapy water to remove dirt and grime.
Drying: Always air-dry your trainers at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or using heat sources (like radiators or tumble dryers) as this can damage materials and adhesives.
Odor Control: If odors develop, remove the insoles and air them out. You can also sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes and let it sit overnight before shaking it out.
Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
