Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and preserve the look of your white leather Gazelle Bold sneakers:
- Immediate Cleaning: Wipe away dirt and minor scuffs as soon as possible with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher spots, a mild soap solution (like diluted dish soap) can be used.
- Leather Cleaner: For deeper cleaning or stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner. Apply it with a soft cloth, following the product's instructions. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Conditioning: After cleaning, apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather soft, supple, and prevent cracking. This also helps protect against future stains.
- Sole Cleaning: For the gum rubber outsole, use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) with mild soap and water to scrub away dirt. Rinse thoroughly.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, as excessive heat can damage leather.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape. Avoid storing them in plastic bags which can trap moisture.
- Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to create a barrier against water and stains, reapplying periodically as per the product's instructions.
