Troubleshooting

Suede material appears matted or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently restore the nap of the suede. For persistent dirt, a suede cleaner can be applied according to product instructions.

Minor scuffs on leather overlays

For light scuffs, a damp cloth may be sufficient. For deeper marks, a colored leather balm matching the shoe's color can be used to conceal the scuff.

Sole appears discolored from dirt

Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. A magic eraser can also be used carefully on the midsole for stubborn marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Upper: For the nylon and leather components, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For tougher stains on leather, a mild leather cleaner can be used sparingly.
  • Suede Care: Use a suede brush to maintain the texture of the hairy suede overlays. Avoid getting suede wet, as this can cause discoloration and damage.
  • Sole Cleaning: The rubber soles can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the rubber.
  • Laces: If laces become dirty, they can be removed and hand-washed with gentle detergent.
  • Storage: Store the sneakers in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and direct sunlight.
