Care Instructions
To ensure the longevity and pristine condition of your premium leather New Balance 990v6 trainers:
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe down the leather surfaces with a soft, damp cloth after each use to remove dirt and dust. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner and follow the product's instructions.
- Conditioning: Apply a high-quality leather conditioner every few months to keep the leather supple, prevent cracking, and maintain its natural luster. Always test the conditioner on an inconspicuous area first.
- Protection: Consider applying a waterproof and stain-resistant spray formulated for leather to protect against moisture and spills.
- Drying: If your trainers get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as these can dry out and damage the leather.
- Storage: Store trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb residual moisture.
- Sole Care: Regularly inspect and clean the non-slip outsole to remove embedded debris, ensuring optimal traction.
