Care & Maintenance for 'Triple White' Leather
Maintaining the pristine look of your all-white leather Air Max 90s is key to their longevity and appearance. Follow these steps for best results:
- Initial Protection: Consider applying a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather and mesh footwear before your first wear. This creates a protective barrier.
- Regular Cleaning:
- Remove Loose Dirt: Use a soft-bristled brush or a dry cloth to gently brush off any loose dirt or dust from the upper and sole after each wear.
- Spot Cleaning: For small marks or scuffs, use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap (e.g., dish soap mixed with water). Gently wipe the affected area in small circular motions.
- Leather Care: For leather portions, use a dedicated leather cleaner applied with a soft cloth. Follow the product's instructions.
- Mesh Care: For mesh, a soft brush and mild soap solution can be used. Avoid excessive scrubbing.
- Outsole Cleaning: Use a brush (an old toothbrush works well) and soap solution to clean the rubber outsole and waffle tread.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Stuffing them with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
- Deep Cleaning (Infrequent): For more stubborn dirt, a sneaker cleaning kit designed for mixed materials can be effective. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
- Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Shoe trees can help maintain their shape and prevent creasing when not in use.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Never put your leather and mesh sneakers in a washing machine, as this can damage materials and adhesives.
